Chapter 233 The dust has settled

(The cold is finally gone, let everyone wait.)

A voice with respect and awe sounded from behind, "Mr. Chen, what is going on?"

It turned out that Governor Liu had come to his senses.

Concerning the matter of landscape gods and demons, Liu Gaohua, the son of Liu Taishou, could only know a little bit about it through literati's notes and novels about monsters. Liu Taishou was not the same. After all, he was a high-ranking official in charge of the people's livelihood of a county, and Rouge County is still the top county in the Caiyi Kingdom. In fact, Prefect Liu has known a lot of secrets. At least the prefectures, counties, cities, God's Pavilion and the Mountain God and Water God, Taishou Liu must know. There are people in the Imperial Etiquette Department who will do it for them. These local officials explained the mysterious ways.

Chen Pingan calmed down his energy a little, and turned his head to look at Liu Taishou. Chen Pingan hesitated to speak.

His victory was thrilling. In fact, after the battle in the City God's Hall and the drawing of talismans on the girl, his body was already at the end of its strength. Although he controlled two flying swords with special origins, he did not need to use up the so-called Qi warriors. This is true, because he "requested" the two young ancestors who raised the sword gourd to help him conquer demons and eliminate demons. Their minds are connected and the gods are pulling them. Therefore, Madam Snake and Scorpion's trump card is the carefully prepared "Snowy Bracelet". "Guan" means nothing to Chen Pingan, but asking the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month will still consume Chen Pingan's energy and mental energy. If the assassin who buys a coffin building who claims to be surnamed Dou is not scared away, Chen Pingan will be very useful. He might be decapitated, or both sides would be injured. In this case, not only would Chen Ping'an's bridge of immortality be broken, but his path as a pure martial artist would probably become shattered from now on because of the damage to his body and soul.

Chen Ping'an didn't know how to explain it for a while. There were too many secrets involved. Fortunately, Taishou Liu saw that the immortal master looked troubled and stopped asking more. The immortals on the mountain walked the world, and the rules were actually the same. There are many taboos, but Liu Taishou still knows this common sense. All he needs to do is make sure that the young swordsman in front of him is a "family member" and not a friend of his son Liu Gaohua? That's enough!

Accompanying Taishou Liu to exchange a few polite words, Chen Pingan turned around and walked towards the old man. He knelt down to help the kind-hearted Qi practitioner feel his pulse. "The effect of the medicine is gone, and you will wake up soon. Chen Pingan suddenly raised his head and saw the little girl blinking her big eyes, full of curiosity.

A pair of watery eyes with natural yin and yang eyes, guided by the Yang Qi Lantern Talisman made of gold, are currently overflowing with a faint golden brilliance.

Chen Pingan smiled and stretched out his hand to wipe the blood on her face, comforting: "It's okay. Does it still hurt?"

The corners of the girl's mouth curled up, and two signs appeared on her cheeks. Shallow little dimples.

Chen Pingan lifted the old man up, placed him on a chair, and then walked towards the door. Liu Taishou thought that it would be best to stay with the swordsman now, so he followed Chen Pingan out of the threshold of the main hall. , Chen Pingan walked to the body of Madam Snake and Scorpion, and found a pink porcelain ball in the plain white cotton bag around her waist.There is a small white snake coiled in the brush, no more than an inch long, extremely slender, holding its head high and shouting madly at the sky. It is full of lust, and there is also a dark scorpion lying sickly on the ground. Take a closer look. Underneath, its body is like an ink-colored pipa.

Chen Ping'an thought slightly. It was a fool's dream to control the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month to kill powerful enemies, but it was not difficult to let them come out and flaunt their majesty.

On the first day of the new year, it turned into a flash of snow-white rainbow light, swept out the sword gourd, went straight into the antique small brush wash, and hovered over the heads of the two little things. It scared the little white snake to tremble and slender. The body is close to the inner wall of the pen washer, and the little black scorpion is holding its head in an anthropomorphic shape. On the first day of the new year, it slowly circles and flies in the pen wash, like a military general inspecting the station, full of momentum.

At this moment, Taishou Liu no longer had the power of a county magistrate or the elegance of a scholar. He just squatted with Chen Ping'an and exclaimed: "The real sword is a real immortal sword!"

A total of sixteen words, spring flowers and autumn moon, spring breeze and autumn trees, spring mountains and autumn stones, spring water and autumn frost.

Chen Pingan smiled knowingly and thought of the pair of sisters he met on the Kun ship. His elder sister, Chun Shui, had a steady temper, while his younger sister, Qiushi, was more childish. Chen Ping'an couldn't help but look up to the southern sky. I wonder if they have arrived at Old Dragon City now? If they could meet again next time, Chen Pingan would like to give them this beautiful little brush washer. Unfortunately, the brush washer has spring water but no autumn fruit. There is only one word difference, so it cannot be put together completely. Otherwise it would be better.

It’s just that Chen Pingan doesn’t know yet. It’s a pity that it can’t be perfect. It’s a pity that it’s a long-lasting regret.

Chen Pingan said: "Mr. Liu, the deceased is a big one. Can you help bury this woman's body and find a place to bury it in the future? I will pay for all expenses."

Prefect Liu said with a smile: "This is such a trivial matter, Mr. Chen doesn't need to worry about it. Just leave everything to the county governor's office, and it will be done safely."

Prefect Liu suppressed his smile. , tentatively said: "It's just that the demon is causing trouble this time. The old man named Huang has evil intentions. Is it possible that Mr. Chen needs to fly his sword to suppress the demon?"

Chen Ping'an said with a bitter smile: "I need one for the time being. Just a big bucket filled with boiling hot water. As for the medicinal materials, I have them myself. I will soak them for at least a few hours to recuperate my body."

Liu Taishou nodded and said: "That's right, that's right. It is up to the servants of the mansion to take care of it. Mr. Chen’s health is very important. The safety of hundreds of thousands of people in Rouge County is now tied to Mr. Chen alone. There really is no room for any mistakes. I will go and get someone to do it right now. Do it..."

Prefect Liu ran away quickly. The implication was that this senior local official of the fourth grade of Caiyi Guozheng was actually not soft-hearted and very straightforward. Chen Ping'an would never be an official again.Of course, he understood the situation, but he could neither pat his chest to guarantee anything nor shirk the situation, so he could only smile bitterly and say nothing.

Except for giving away the sword, Chen Pingan only had four words to do everything within his power.

This is true for Jincheng Huang Shen Wen, and it is also true for this border official who guards the pastoral side.

Finally, in an elegant and quiet room, Chen Pingan was soaked in a large medicine bucket. The medicinal materials were given by Wei Bo before leaving Longquan County. They were enough for three uses. Of course Wei Bo could get more. , this actually means that Beiyue Zhengshen’s money is enough, and the heavenly materials and earthly treasures of Niujiaoshan Baofengzhai are also enough, but Wei Bo did not prepare too much at once. At that time, he joked that it was a bad omen, and he gave too many gifts, which was pure of heart and did not care about others. Well, he still hopes that Chen Ping'an will have a smooth journey throughout the world and that the number of injuries will be no more than three, so he should regard it as a good luck.

Before Chen Pingan entered this room, he asked Taishou Liu to help keep the secret and not to reveal that he was a "Sword Immortal."

At the same time, he handed the magic talisman to Liu Taishou, saying that it was to be returned to his friend Taoist Zhang Shan.

During the soaking process, Chen Pingan clearly noticed that there was an earth-shattering movement at the Chenghuang Pavilion in Rouge County City. However, since Chen Pingan couldn't care about it, he simply didn't think much about it. Anxin warms and nourishes the Qi machine, combined with the Eighteen Stops of Sword Qi taught by A Liang, and the breathing and exhalation taught to him by Old Man Yang, he concentrates in the bucket and pinches the Sword Furnace Technique in the Shanshan Quan Book with both hands, like a dead tree in winter. , quietly waiting for the spring breeze to blow.

This night, the fighting continued in Rouge County. On the one hand, the demon successfully activated the formation, and people everywhere were possessed by the demonic barrier. The county governor's mansion was exhausted to cope with it. On the other hand, it was a good thing. , it’s another disaster. The good thing is that a secret message came from General Ma from the east gate of the city. The old devil Huang, who was wearing a fairy cloak, was with three people at the City God’s Hall for some reason. As a result, the four people took action without stopping. One after another, magic weapons appeared one after another, and evil spells emerged one after another. Hundreds of mansions and buildings were damaged, and the people suffered heavy casualties. General Ma's elite troops rushed to reinforce Rouge County from their base. Riding, you can't walk through the streets in a cavalry manner, so you have to dismount and fight on foot. Everyone is wearing iron armor and holding strong bows and crossbows. But against the four demon giants who practice on the mountain, except for the few in the county governor's house, Ten specially made arrows can pose a substantial threat. The remaining bow and crossbow arrows could not keep up with the four people flying around. Secondly, they were scattered by a sleeve and even There were also some arrows that were caught by the four demons during the battle and then thrown back, killing and wounding more than 80 elites.

Even if you want to trade death for injury, you can't do it.

General Ma is indeed worthy of being brave and not afraid of death. He is brave and good at fighting on the border battlefield. He also takes the lead against these practitioners. He and the deputy general found the right opportunity several times to arrest him. A certain demon who lived alone joined forces to fight in close combat, and later provoked the enemyThe red-eyed "Huang Lao Shenxian" and Mi Lao Mo launched a fierce attack and made a truce for a moment. General Ma and the deputy general were both injured. If not for the dozens of soldiers who used the Mo family's special bows and arrows to intercept them, and several people who risked their lives to protect them, otherwise Neither of them could escape the battlefield alive, and they would die in the Rouge County city that night.

In the second half of the night, the "Huang Lao Immortal" was fighting one against three, and Mi Lao Mo sprinkled a large handful of "white rice" on his head. Green smoke suddenly appeared all over his body, and his flesh and blood were blurred. Countless flesh and blood holes were burnt out, and they had no choice but to sneak into the ground using the art of escaping. The three demons began to search for them. If they encountered county police officers or soldiers who entered the city who dared to stop them, they would kill them mercilessly.

At dawn, when Chen Pingan got dressed and walked out of the house, he found Liu Gaoxin sitting at the end of the corridor, taking a nap on a small stool.

The girl was a light sleeper and woke up soon. She was afraid that she would drool while sleeping, so she quickly turned her head and wiped her face.

She actually returned to the official residence not long ago. She changed into clean clothes and came here to sit as a doorkeeper.

Chen Pingan and her went to the main hall together, asking and answering questions. Chen Pingan had a general understanding of the trends in the county and city during this period. After hearing that the demons were having internal strife, it was a bit unbelievable, but the fighting was so No lie, although I don’t know the inside story of the twists and turns, as long as it is beneficial to Rouge County, it is still a good thing, but no one can control the extra accidental casualties.

In Cui Chan's words, there is a guy in the world who is the most powerful. Those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish.

At that time, the young national master, a young man in white clothes, deliberately betrayed the situation and had no choice but to show his charming eyes to the blind man. Chen Pingan was unwilling to answer, so the young Cui Chan had to talk to himself and give the answer. , calling it the “general trend”.

This is the general trend.

Cui Chan also said that the decline and prosperity in this big field of the human world all depend on the direction of certain general trends.

Chen Ping'an was not interested at all in the words Cui Han was talking about, because he didn't understand them at all. In fact, he was also afraid of what that guy said.

Although Lin Shouyi, Li Huai, and Yu Lu thank you, they are not very close to Cui Chan, but in fact, deep down in their hearts, they should all have a considerable amount of respect for this person, and even It's admiration.

Of course, only the little girl in the red cotton jacket, Li Baoping, is definitely not included in this list.

It was the young Cui Chan who was afraid of her.

Chen Ping'an learned from Liu Gaoxin's words that there was war everywhere in the county. The martial arts masters and mountain monks, including Xu Yuanxia and Zhang Shanfeng, would go out to continue their work every time they came back for a short rest and bandaging of wounds. During the suppression of demonic obstacles in various places, Xu Yuanxia and Zhang Shanfeng also faced off against a young master of the magic way, who should be one of the key figures in the magic way who arranged the formation. The two sides strangled for less than a cup of tea. The dangers were everywhere, and the bearded man A large piece of flesh on his shoulder was torn off by his bare-handed opponent. Later, Taoist Chongmiao arrived with reinforcements of brass warriors and was able to force back the vicious demon.

And her sisterFor some reason, she and her brother returned to their home with her master even though they had left the city safely. After closing the door in the study and talking to her father, the master took her eldest sister and second brother to the backyard to stay, like She encountered something very strange, and for the time being, she couldn't tell whether it was good or bad. If it was good, everyone would be happy, if it was bad, everything would stop. In short, neither her father nor her master wanted the girl Liu Gaoxin to get involved. Among them, she was busy putting out fires tonight and really couldn't care less.

Then the girl from Zhao Mansion who was rescued by Chen Ping'an and the stubborn boy who depended on the girl for life have been arranged to live in the prefect's mansion.

When Chen Pingan and Liu Gaoxin approached the main hall, they found that the atmosphere was solemn. They stepped into it quickly and found a room full of blood. An old Taoist priest with a broken robe was slumped on a chair, his face covered with blood. His hair was disheveled, his heart was bleeding profusely, his body was covered in scars, and there was no way to bandage him. He was in a desolate situation where he could barely breathe. Liu Taishou, Xu Yuanxia, ​​Taoist Zhang Shanfeng, and the old man with a writing brush hanging from his waist all... Surrounded by the old Taoist, the old man who had saved the girl before shook his head gently at the crowd, his face full of bitterness and guilt, and Taishou Liu also let out a long sigh.

The old Taoist who was dying was exactly the Taoist Chongmiao who gave people an arrogant and philistine first impression.

The old man had some flashbacks, and his originally cloudy vision gradually became a little brighter. He raised his head and smiled at Liu Taishou: "Master Liu, if the immortal master of the Lingxi sect saves Rouge County this time and eradicates all the big and small... From now on, Pindao’s family, which includes dozens of people, will have to trouble Mr. Liu, the parent officer, to take more care of him.”

Taoist Master Liu nodded and said solemnly: “Taoist Master Chongmiao, please relax. My heart is clear, even if I am no longer serving in Rouge County, I will let the new county governor know about today’s war and Taoist Chongmiao’s contribution to Rouge County. In short, I will never let the Taoist family suffer any injustice. "< /p>

The old Taoist clasped his fists with difficulty to thank him, then turned to the young Taoist Zhang Shanfeng with reddish eyes, and said with a smile: "Zhang Shan, if you weren't so stupid and risking your life, I'm afraid the poor Taoist would have cheered me up right then." He must be dead, and he may even have to let the devil escape. How can a poor Taoist achieve this feat of killing the devil with his own hands..."

The old Taoist coughed, and the cough was severe, and everyone tried to stop him. Taoist Chongmiao, please stop talking.

Xu Yuanxia, ​​a bearded man, asked softly: "Old Taoist Master, do you want to ask your juniors to come here?"

The old Taoist nodded.

Liu Taishou went to order his servants again and quickly informed the old Taoist priest’s direct family members in the county city.

The old Taoist man took advantage of his breath to feel energetic. He silently calculated the distance and time it would take for his descendants to come here. After resting in silence for a moment, he looked around at the crowd and smiled slowly. : "Pindao actually knows, you guys, you used to look down on people like Pindao who take advantage of the situation. They are just talking about business. Practitioners, don't be ashamed to talk about business and money. There is nothing you can do about it. We loose cultivators in the mountains, There are no big trees to enjoy the shade, and there are no ancestors of the sect’s ancestors.Yin can protect you, but you can only rely on yourself to make money and earn those slim opportunities. Otherwise, how can it be done? ”

Speaking of this, the old Taoist fell into silence again, looking dazed, as if thinking of the ups and downs of honor and disgrace in this life.

After a long time, the old Taoist put away his thoughts and suddenly sighed. , “You have to do business, but you also need to be a practitioner. Right? "

The old Taoist coughed and laughed, "But it may be that the qualifications of the poor Taoist are too poor. He knew early on that he had no hope of becoming a great person, so he had such a childish and ridiculous idea. How can a true mountain cultivator be covered in the stench of copper? How can they care about the life, old age, sickness and death of the people up and down the mountain? ”

The old Taoist stared blankly in the direction of the door, as if looking for those familiar figures. The old man murmured: “I have been calling people Chongmiao Taoist for a lifetime, but I have not been able to change a word. I respectfully call you 'Zhenmiao Chongmiao', what a pity! What a pity! "

As soon as he said the regret, the old man's energy seemed to collapse all of a sudden. His eyesight was blurred, his breathing was extremely weak, and his voice was low and inaudible, "Why aren't you here yet..."

After all, the old man did not wait for his family to arrive, so he just leaned on the back of his chair and passed away.

It was not that he died with his eyes closed, nor did he close his eyes peacefully, he just looked like a dead man. The old man was squinting into the distance, trying to see something, but he couldn't see clearly.

The whole audience was silent.

Chen Pingan walked over and helped the old Taoist wipe it away. There was blood on his face.

Not long after he finished this, the younger members of Taoist Chongmiao’s family swarmed in, as many as ten people, including men, women and children. After talking about the process, and of course the promise he made to the old Taoist, he also told the descendants of the old Taoist publicly.

The eldest son of Taoist Chongmiao, a middle-aged man with a big belly, naturally expressed his concern. The prefect was grateful, but most of the women were sobbing and choking.

But a boy in his early ten years rushed out without warning and asked everyone angrily: "Why is it that my grandfather is the only one who died?" ? "

The boy, whose face was full of hatred and anger, widened his eyes and looked like a jackal, and roared: "Answer me! "

Xu Yuanxia, ​​a bearded man, frowned.

Taoist Zhang Shanfeng turned his head and looked at the deceased old Taoist with a pale face. He sighed in his heart. Some answers can only be answered if spoken out. It's really hurtful. The old Taoist actually wanted to monopolize the war achievements at first, and fell into the trap of the devil who showed his weakness to the enemy. He underestimated the enemy and rushed forward. If he and Xu Daxia had not been for the moral justice in their hearts, both of them would have risked their lives. Save your life, otherwise the outcome will only be worse than it is now.

But it is true that the old Taoists have selfish motives, but this selfishness is human nature. From yesterday to now, the old Taoists have been fighting all the way. In the end, he died vigorously in battle. There is no way that "talking about business" can explain everything. A land and water nurture a people. If the old Taoist doesn't have the most sincere feelings for the hometown of Rouge County,Feelings will never be so desperate.

Humanity and worldly affairs are the hardest to reason with.

Because once you really want to break it into pieces and make sense, it will be like the wine has soaked through the house and it will be tasteless.

The furious child stretched out his finger, pointed at everyone, and shouted, "You are all murderers."

The eldest son of an old Taoist, the man quickly asked his wife to take back his crazy son, and then apologized to Prefect Liu and everyone.

Liu Taishou’s expression was as usual, and he kept saying childlike things. He didn’t care. He even apologized to the man in turn, saying that this time it was indeed him, the county governor, who had neglected his duty and was unworthy of them. As a family, their family has lost a pillar, and they will definitely have to come to apologize in the future, and so on.

But what does this parent official think in his heart? God knows whether the incestuous relationship between Taoist Chongmiao and the county governor will be reduced by this.

So even if the ancestral blessings in the world are given to descendants, everyone still has his or her own destiny. Some people can grasp it, some cannot grasp it, some can grasp it more and some can grasp it less. , and often the person involved is completely unaware of this kind of thing at the moment and can only act based on his heart.

In a dark alley in Rouge County, there was a young man. Although his clothes were simple, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and his skin was as good as that of a young girl. He sat against the wall, pregnant with They were holding a dying man who was constantly vomiting blood in his mouth. Next to them was a man squatting on lookout. The three of them were the shopkeepers of Mipu. They were all disciples of Mi Laomo. The young man was a native of Rouge County. Lao Mo just accepted him as a disciple last year.

The senior brother in the young man's arms was the man from the demonic path who had exchanged lives with Taoist Chongmiao. He was worthy of being a demon. He grinned, and his last words before his death were actually: : "Junior brother, between me and your second senior brother, who do you like more?"

The young man gently held the man's chin with one hand, lowered his head, his eyes were full of affection, and choked up: "Of course it's you. ."

The man reached out and took out a yellowing book, and handed it to the handsome young man with a trembling hand.

After the young man took the secret book, the man in his arms was dead. The young man held the secret book tightly in one hand, picked it up high, called "Second Senior Brother", and turned around.

Almost all men’s attention is on the secret books.

The young man suddenly sped up and turned around. He held the book in one hand and stabbed the second senior brother in the neck with the other hand. It turned out to be a hidden knife.

Poke-in and pull-out, repeated three times, almost the entire neck of the man was stabbed to pieces by the boy. The boy's handsome face was spattered with blood, and the corners of his mouth were full of smiles.

The man covered his neck with both hands and leaned against the wall, staring wide-eyed at the young junior brother who went on a murderous rampage.

The young man first put away the secret book, stretched out his hand to wipe his face, and kept wiping it on the man's clothes. Then he took out another book from the man's arms and said with a smile: "Second Senior Brother, I just deceived you." Senior brother, I actually like you more, but of course I like myself the most.Although our stinky master with a weird temper always ridicules the senior brother for not having read the book and not knowing the true meaning of this sentence, I think the senior brother understands it well. Anyway, I feel the same way. Besides, we are originally Wrong ways are evil heretics, so don’t blame me, second senior brother. The worst you can do is to accompany your senior brother on the road to hell. When you get down there, tell your senior brother that I actually like you more..."

The man died with his eyes closed.

The boy was still mumbling, shaking his head, and felt around the two corpses to see if any fish had slipped through the net, leaving behind any hidden spiritual weapons, just like It was the usual young man who was humming while choosing vegetables.

But the young man soon became stiff. After stopping, he took out two books from his arms and placed them on his head.

The young man’s teeth chattered. This time he was really scared.

The tall and thin old man turned his head and spat out a mouthful of blood. After the blood touched the wall, it immediately turned into a black mass. Blood mist.

The Mi Lao Mo, who has been dormant in Rouge County for nearly twenty years, cursed in a low voice: "Well, you Glazed Immortal Chen Xiaoyong, even if you can't escape Rouge County this time, I'm going to beat you to death, too!

The old man looked at the young man with disgust, "Get up and put those two books away. Since both senior brothers are dead, you are now the eldest disciple." ”

The young man stood up tremblingly.

Mi Laomo took out a small oil lamp with thick oil from his sleeve and took a deep breath. On the corpses of the two disciples, the souls were like After being pulled out, they all floated into the oil lamp. The disciple's face appeared on the thick lamp oil, showing a twisted expression of pain, but it quickly disappeared and became part of the lamp oil.

The sight sent chills down the handsome young man's spine.

A person appeared at each end of the alley, approaching slowly. It was the couple who had gone to Mipu before. The woman's waist was twisted more than a wicker in a strong wind. To make a big difference, "Mi Laomo, what a coincidence, we meet again. "

Mi Laomo's eyes flashed and he sneered: "What, do you want to regret it? We have agreed in advance that the glass lamp belongs to me, and the rest of Mr. Chen's property belongs to you.

The woman's hand, with five fingers like hooks, slowly moved across the wall, and said with a charming smile: "That's what I said, but now that the Glazed Immortal has become a turtle, he can pretend Death, but we, husband and wife, can't just wait for death here with him. Mi Laomo, can you share some benefits? We, husband and wife, can't let our trip go in vain, right? ”

Mi Lao Mo’s expression was gloomy and uncertain.

The handsome young man lowered his head and stood against the wall, his eyes moving quietly.

————

On the east tower, with General Ma leading his troopsLeaving the city head and rushing to support the city, there is no one guarding this side.

A young man in pink robes stood outside the corridor on the top floor of the city tower, smiling, looking at the alley where Milaomo was, and sneered: "A little broken glass Can a worthless thing that I used to drink be so bloody? Has the Caiyi Kingdom become so boring after a thousand years?"

He? After taking one look at it, he didn't want to waste time. He turned around and looked at the governor's mansion, "Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion, haha, I didn't expect that you sent someone to add 'this talisman' two hundred years ago. , with the image of the Heavenly Master's seal placed in Rouge County City, the Emperor of Caiyi Kingdom must be selfish and unwilling to bless the spiritual energy at all, and the emergence of mass graves should also disrupt the layout of both of you, making I finally escaped from the prison. Man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation."

He held the railing with one hand and made secrets with the other, starting from Rouge County and deducing the situation of Caiyi Country five hundred years ago. Now, he suddenly smiled and looked to the north, not only to the north of Caiyi Kingdom, but also to the northernmost part of the entire Aquarius Continent. He tutted and said: "Exalted Master, Master, Caiyi Kingdom is missing a long-standing tradition. The Lingxi Sect, which was the treasure of the town and protected the Caiyi Kingdom, was also severely damaged. The three neighboring countries, including the Guyu Kingdom, were stolen. How could they stand by while someone was sick? It's a simple matter of killing people. In addition, due to the emperor's long-term neglect of government near the capital of Caiyi Kingdom, the government and the public have been constantly criticizing. As long as there is another natural disaster, public dissatisfaction will inevitably boil, and there may be turmoil. Moreover, this Once there is chaos, there will be a melee between several countries."

"Liu Chicheng" in pink robes nodded and said: "Since the situation is like this, I have to accept a few disciples."

He. Taking one step forward, the figure is fleeting and fleeting.

The next moment he walked out of the narrow and dark alley.

Mi Laomo and his wife, who were about to fight to the death, were so frightened that they remained motionless.

The crushing momentum is like a few small shrimps and crabs meeting a dragon whose body almost fills the entire river bed in the originally slow-flowing silent river.

The pink-robed Liu Chicheng didn’t talk nonsense at all. With a wave of his sleeves, the couple in the alley were wiped out on the spot, leaving not even ashes behind. As for any spiritual weapons or magic weapons, Of course, the money and money for snow also disappeared between heaven and earth.

Those twining pink lotus flowers are not dead objects, but swaying on the Taoist robes, and they are even more fragrant.

The Taoist robe itself is more like a lotus pond.

Mi Laomo, who was used to seeing wind and rain, was still covered in sweat and asked: "Why don't the immortal masters kill me too?"

"Liu Chicheng" smiled and said: "If I wear a Taoist robe, do I have to slay demons and protect the Tao? Are you not allowed to wear it just because I think it looks good?"

Mi Laomo was speechless.

Damn it, he is definitely a giant of the devil, and he is the one who stands at the highest point of the mountain in legend.

"Liu Chicheng" flicked his fingers, sending Mi Lao Mo flying backwards from the middle of the alley to the end of the alley, "Stop being an eyesore and get out of here. Also, I will accept you as my disciple."

He walked up to the young man, put his hands behind his back, looked down, and asked with a smile: "Little guy, what's your last name?"

The handsome young man raised his head belatedly, swallowed, and said timidly: "Replying to the Immortal Master, my name is Yuantianchi."

"Huh?"

He was slightly confused, "Is it the heaven and earth of 'Heaven and Earth'?"

The young man shook his head and turned pale. He was afraid that his head would be crushed in the next moment, but he did not dare to lie. He answered honestly: "When my mother was pregnant with me, her family was poor. When she was nine months pregnant, she I was still doing farm work in the fields, but I was accidentally born prematurely, so my father named me 'Tian Di'."

"Liu Chicheng" smiled brightly and patted me gently. The young man's shoulder said, "Then your name is really good. I like it. You will be my disciple from now on. Master will give you a sect entrance gift first."

The young man then saw this inexplicable master. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and then scarlet miasma rushed in from all directions, wisps of strands converging into a huge red ball. The "young" cheap master in a pink robe just rubbed two fingers casually, The big ball of miasma, which was as big as a water tank, condensed into a small ball as big as a fist.

"Liu Chicheng" gently slapped the young man's forehead with his palm, and said with a smile: "I forgot to tell you, do me A disciple, you have to stay alive. If you can survive until dawn, you will be the... second most important person in this sect like ours."

The young man's back hit the wall, feeling severe pain. It's hard to describe, as if the eyebrows are cracked.

"Liu Chicheng" was indifferent to this. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After opening his eyes, he looked to the west and said to himself: "Elder brother, your Baidi City still smells better."

This unreasonable disaster broke out so quickly that people were caught off guard, but it ended so quickly and was so unbelievable that the entire county magistrate’s mansion and The elite troops under General Ma who entered the city mistakenly thought that the big monsters might have more powerful back-ups. However, when the morning sun rose and the rays of light spread across the sky, the county began to return to normal, and the number of people who had fallen into the demonic barrier dropped sharply. Everyone was worried. They were anxiously waiting for the Immortal Master of the Lingxi Sect to come here in Cai Luan to calm the morale of the army, and then the "missed appointment" did not arrive. From noon until the evening, no one was seen, and then the prefect Liu "fell ill in bed". Fortunately, after that time, there were no more tragic incidents of demons causing trouble in Rouge County. There were only a few cases where street ruffians fished in troubled waters and broke into houses to rob. As a result, the righteous General Ma directly sent troops to suppress them and killed two people on the spot. A gangster who resisted with weapons. In fact, those two poor guys just subconsciously took two wooden sticks.

Another night passed. Rouge County was still quiet and peaceful, but no one dared to take it lightly. A large number of armored soldiers worked day and night, one after another.Guard the city under martial law.

Then on that early morning, Cai Luan did not fly over the county city, but two sword immortals, an old man and a young man, came flying in with swords. One Chen Pingan was known to all three of them, and he was named Fu. The round-faced girl and the other an elder from the Lingxi sect landed in the county governor's mansion. Liu Taishou's illness immediately recovered. After the elder sat down in the official residence, although he had a good demeanor and spoke elegantly, However, there was a look of worry between his brows. After sitting there for a short time, after confirming that the miasma in Rouge County had been cleared, he quickly said goodbye to the young swordsman named Fu, Yufeng went away, and hurried back to the mountain gate of Lingxi Sect.

It turned out that on their way south to rescue Rouge County, they suddenly received a message from their master Feijian. The treasure of the town sect that had been passed down for thousands of years had disappeared!

It's just that the old man of the Lingxi Sect will certainly not tell outsiders about such confidential matters that involve the life and death of a sect.

In fact, if it were not for the sake of appearance, but mainly because he was afraid of leaving a bad impression on the girl from the Shengaozong, this Supreme Elder who was a swordsman in the middle fifth realm would not have taken this trip at all. Rouge County, Caiyi Country's safety, how can it be worth the importance of Cai Luan's clothes? This is the foundation of the sect.

After that, another great thing happened to the county governor's house. It was said that the young swordsman from Shengaozong took a fancy to Liu Gaoxin, the youngest daughter of Liu Taishou, and said that she could personally help. She introduced him to the outer sect of Shen Gao Sect, and there was a high chance that he would directly become one of the direct disciples of a certain patriarch of the inner sect.

Happy.

Only the girl was unhappy, and then she was scolded by her parents, her eldest sister and her second brother, and even scolded by her master, an old staff member of the county governor's mansion.

Although the round-faced girl has a very high seniority in the Shen Gao Sect where Yizhou Taoism is located, and her face is cold to the old Taoist Zhao Liu and the ghost Yang Huang, she is really easy to talk to Liu Gaoxin and makes her laugh. Hehe, he would also take Liu Gaoxin around the county and buy some boudoir supplies for girls.

Unlike last year, spring left extremely late and summer came extremely late.

This year's spring, early spring has come, late spring has gone, tomorrow will be the beginning of summer, so the entire spring of this year has passed like this.

At dawn that day, the girl Liu Gaoxin left the county town without saying goodbye. She left letters one after another in the room. The girl's eyes were red, and she and Sister Fu from the Xian family each said goodbye. Riding a snow-white horse, the horse's hooves are in formation, stepping on the bluestone, traveling farther and farther away from his family and hometown.

Just when the girl was riding a white horse on a sparsely populated street, she suddenly turned around and saw a young man carrying a sword box standing on the ridge of a distant roof, waving gently to her. bid farewell.

The girl pouted and turned her head suddenly. The tears on her face fell into pieces.

Liu Gaoxin's mood suddenly improved. He raised his head high and turned his back to the guy who quietly saw her off. The girl laughed happily.

The round-faced girl named Fu turned her head and glanced, only to feel that the house in the distanceThe young man on the spine seemed familiar, but he had no impression, so he didn't bother to think about it anymore.

After Chen Pingan saw off Liu Gaoxin, he sat alone on the ridge of the roof, took off the wine gourd from his waist, and drank the wine in one sip.
