Great Sui Guoshi

"Hey, my teacher said that we are the ones who will kill demons and eliminate demons..." The Taoist clenched his fists, looked at Lu Liangsheng at the side, curled his lips, stopped speaking, and let go of his fists.

"I respect the old and love the young, and I don't have the same knowledge as you."

Toad half-opened his eyelids, and said lightly, "That's my mother."

"You dare to scold me!"

"It's his mother, croak."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"I don't know who my parents are, so go ahead, my mother!"

"My old mother!!!"

……

One hindered Lu Liangsheng's face from making a move, and the other was chasing him in the morning and still had resentment, but he was unable to do it. One person and one toad just sprayed each other in front of the bed, and even Nie Honglian floated down curiously, sitting by the side to watch for a long time.

After a while, Toad ran to drink water with parched mouth and tongue, and the Taoist rushed outside with red face and red ears, and jumped onto the roof, unwilling to share the room with Toad.

Lu Liangsheng lay back on the bed, bored listening to it, turned to the book to read, and then, feeling tired, fell asleep.

When I woke up the next morning, I couldn't feel the pain on my body at all. The sun poured in through the window lattice, and outside the window, birds were standing on the treetops and singing.

In the yard, Sun Yingxian didn't know what got up, and was punching there. His worn-out Taoist robe fluttered and flew in the morning light. He landed in mid-air and pushed it away with his palm. There was a faint sound of wind, and the treetops not far away were shaking slightly.

Turning around, bending one leg, punching out with the palm of his hand, heavy and powerful, apart from his appearance, he has a fairy-like appearance.

Lu Liangsheng stood at the side of the water tank to wash, while watching quietly.

... This Taoist knows the art of talismans, but he also knows how to use fists and kicks.

... If he saw the falsehood that day, he was really no match... It seems that his cultivation base is much higher than mine.

While thinking about it, Sun Yingxian regained his strength, looked over, and raised his chin.

"It's your turn, let me open my eyes."

Lu Liangsheng laughed and took a sip of warm water, "I don't know how to punch, that's the only thing I know!" He took out the Langhao pen, but the evil spirit exuded from the rings of the pen made the Taoist rush over.

"These are the tentacles of the centipede...so big...I'm afraid they have become fine through cultivation."

Sun Yingxian looked at the young man again, with an expression of disbelief: "The centipede was killed by you?"

"That's not true, the other party let me go."

Speaking of what happened that night, Lu Liangsheng did not hide anything, and said it frankly. In the morning light, he took out a page of paper and drew a bird.

"...You don't want to see, this is my way."

With a tick of the pen tip, the ink bird on the painting blinked its eyes suddenly, its feathers glowed with color, and flew out at once, singing by the side of the water tank.

Attracted a few birds from the treetops to descend, chirping and circling around it.

Although this scene was surprising, but Sun Yingxian was also a person who had stepped into cultivation, so he could see his features naturally, and then... he yelled.

"Did you use illusion that night?"

Lu Liangsheng withdrew the mana on the painting, the bird standing in the water tank gradually faded and disappeared, and he put down the brush.

"...Because there's nothing else."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Sun Yingxian Sun Yingxian kneads hair vigorously, walked back and forth two steps, after calming down, thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong."

Frowning: "Illusion, when my master is still there, I can do it, but it's just some tricks, but yours...why is it so lifelike?"

"Your master can't draw."

The Taoist looked at the writing brush in the young man's hand, and the picture of the bird, and rubbed his face: "That's really true, why don't I teach you some tricks of the Jianghu people, and I will repay the favor of the book."

Lu Liangsheng nodded: "I only have formulas, but I don't know any moves. It seems that I have gained a lot in the past few days."

"Your master didn't teach you? That's right, how can a toad teach you?"

Sun Yingxian probably didn't want to owe favors, so he stayed in Lujia Village and took out a set of Qianyang Zhang's unarmed Kung Fu teachings, saying that his master taught him it was an upright and orthodox Kung Fu, and during the period he also taught Lu Liangsheng the right way of the universe , Occasionally make gestures, most of them are winning at a high level.

After all, Lu Liangsheng is just getting started, but the illusion has caused the Taoist to suffer a lot, to the point where it is difficult to tell the truth from the fake.

After getting acquainted, Sun Yingxian will also talk about the often mentioned master.

"...My master is proficient in metaphysics, and I have only learned a little bit about the means of subduing demons and demons with one hand. Unfortunately, one day, he said that he would go out and get rid of a big monster that eats countless people with his fellows. After half a month, I came back again, but my body was infected with purple poison, and my whole body was black and purple and festered, and I died in less than two days."

This was also one of the reasons why Sun Yingxian wanted to smash to death whenever he saw a monster.

Taoist Toad opened his eyes, snorted, and continued to lie down to bask in the sun, the pimples on his back reflected black and purple in the sunlight.

This continued for two months.

In the morning, he taught Lu Liangsheng, and in the afternoon, the two of them went out of the village together to reunite the Yanhe magic circle. It is surrounded by Lujia Village.

Unknowingly, the people in the two villages discovered that the fish and shrimps in the river had become abundant and much larger than those in other places.

Before word of the sudden change became known, the weather turned cold and snow fell heavily.

Chapter 39 Clues

In Fushui County, the snow-covered city walls extend, and the houses are row upon row, all covered with snow.

The heavy snow has stopped, and occasionally sporadic snowflakes fall on the streets. The end of the year is approaching, and people who have been busy for a year finally have free time at this time to accompany their relatives to buy New Year's goods.

On the hustle and bustle of the long street, a stall was surrounded by water, looking at the baskets full of carp and pointing.

"...Sure enough, the carp sold here is much bigger than ordinary fish."

"This head is almost as big as my two fists."

"Hey, what do you fish eat, where did you get them so big?"

"...Give me two. This fish is delicious, but there are too many thorns. I bought one yesterday and thought about it again today."

"I also want!"

.......

"...Have you heard of what happened at Yazui Ridge?"

White air rises from the mouth and floats to the top of the long street, the cold wind squeezes into the window lattice, the noise of people on the second floor of the restaurant, literati and elegant guests speak softly, there are also travelers and merchants from three mountains and five roads resting here, drinking to keep warm, saying From what I saw and heard on the way.

A merchant wrapped in a fur coat put down his wine glass and looked at his friend opposite.

"Three months ago, I was doing business in Tongling County. When I came back, I saw that the county government officers and arresters were dispatched, pulling several carts of corpses... I asked people I knew in the government office to find out. Knowing that there are 34 of them, what do you guess the identities of these people?"

He raised his head in his mouth, which immediately aroused the interest of the nearby drinkers. Even if they listened carefully to the next words, some people couldn't help asking.

"Tell me quickly, what are your identities?"

The businessman turned his head, and everyone around him looked this way, quite satisfied with the atmosphere, holding his wine glass and lowering his voice.

"Bandit!"

On the second floor, some are Chinese and poets from the city, and there are also some merchants who travel to and from various places, or knights from the green forest. Most of them hate the thief who cut the path.

Someone applauded and clapped their hands: "It's so rare to kill a few bandits. This kind of person can't wait to die more."

A green forest man with a knife on his back stretched out his hand to burn the coals.

"I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out that a few bandits died, most likely, they were killed by those knight-errants who acted out of righteousness."

The merchant waved his hands again and again, stood up, and whispered to the people around him: "Everyone, do you know that those bandits have no body, and their death conditions are even more terrifying, without even a single wound. The leader of the bandits, Liu Erlong When being carried out of the car, tsk tsk... the whole body was twisted into twists, and the head was turned to the back, as if twisting the person alive."

hiss--

The second floor was filled with gasps.

Someone asked in a low voice, "Are there still people alive on the mountain?"

"It must be gone. If you kill people, will you stay alive?" The businessman spread his hands, thought of something, and said: "The yamen servant who knows me well said that it was the left catcher of our county yamen who discovered it at that time. Yes, there is something strange, before the bandits died, they made a deal and went down the mountain to rob a place called Lujia Village, do you know where it is?"

When he said this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and the two drinkers by the other window stood up.

"Brother, it's okay if you don't say that. When I said it, I remembered that there have been more fish and shrimp sellers in this city recently. It seems that they came from the Lujia Village."

Now the chatterbox opened, and many people followed suit.

"There is such a thing. The fish and shrimp are very big, and the meat is tender and delicious. The old man even asked my wife to buy a few more and put them in the water tank, preparing to entertain distinguished guests at the end of the year."

"That's right... I still think of one more thing. I heard that the master Wang of the county government has accepted a student, and he seems to be from Lujia Village."

"If that's the case...that place is truly outstanding."

Two long streets separated from the building.

A carriage drove through the noisy street, and the snow-covered road made two tracks. Soon, at the gate of the Fushui County Yamen, Min Changwen, dressed in casual clothes, sent his old wife away to the office courtyard on the side, and pushed it away with a creak. door.

The cold wind squeezed in, and the lights on the long case were blown and swayed.

The old man at the back put down his brush, looked at the county magistrate who came in, and got up with a smile: "The county magistrate doesn't stay in the back hall with his wife and daughter, why come here to accompany me, a lonely old man."

"I don't have anything to do, I also come to see Duke Shu Hua."

Min Changwen came in, shook the cold air on his robe, sat opposite the old man, stretched out his hands to warm the stove: "By the way, sir, have you been out recently to hear something about the city?"

The old man poured the wine and put it in front of the county magistrate: "That's not true, what's new outside?"

"How about the carp that my family ate yesterday?"

Wang Shuhua held up his wine glass to respect, and nodded: "The soup melts in the mouth, and the soup is delicious."

The county magistrate smiled, took a sip of the wine and put it on the table.

"That's fished out of the river in Lujia Village and sold in the city, but it's good..." He sighed, then paused, and changed the subject: "Mr. Shuhua remembers, Zuo Butou came back from Yazuiling that day, what did he talk about?"

"Naturally remember."

The old man frowned and thought about it for a moment: "That day Zuo Butou said that the 34 bandits went down the mountain to loot...the body has no external injuries, which is consistent with the death of Mr. Chen's family...."

At this point, Wang Shuhua stopped talking, and his brows furrowed even more. Before Chen Yuan's family was sneaky, forty idlers and street thugs pretending to be high-ranking people were registered, and nine of them were from Lujia Village.

Seeing that the old man stopped talking, Min Changwen sighed and patted the back of the old man's hand.

"This county hates evil like an enemy. If you are a chivalrous man, you should turn your eyes and close your eyes. He is a student of the master. If you follow the right path and follow the heresy, it will only ruin his talent."

"Does Zuo Butou know?" The old man withdrew his hand and took a sip from his wine glass.

"I don't know the specific person."

"You and I are just guessing."

"Sir, you should also know that when I was an official in the capital, I often dealt with those treacherous eunuchs... Forget it, I won't mention these, but there is one more thing. Most of the Lu family villages are hunters and farmers, and their families have no money. How does Lu Liangsheng know how to read?"

Min Changwen got up and let out a sigh of relief, rubbed his hands, and moved all the official documents in front of the old man.

"Sir, you've been very busy these days. Why don't you go to Lujia Village to see the snowy scenery on the mountain, recite poems and compose poems, soothe your mood, and take a look at your student by the way."

The old man nodded and laughed.

"It's okay, the old man has indeed been sitting for too long these days, it's time to move around and bring back a few fish so that the magistrate can replenish his body."

"Haha, welcome, Mr. Shuhua, I'm also greedy for that fish."

Soon, Min Changwen lent his only carriage to the old man, and sent several servants to follow him, and took Zuo Butou, who was about to leave for Hegu County after the Chinese New Year, and set off westward early the next morning.

Out of the city gate, into the country road, covered in silver, a vast expanse of white paved in the distant mountains.

Chapter 40 Seeing, Hearing, Practicing Qi

In the vast expanse of whiteness, different colors drive past.

A carriage, followed by several followers.

The snow-covered dirt road was difficult to walk, and the rickety carriage, someone lifted the curtain and looked outside, and several figures dressed as hunters hurried past and stopped them.

"Dare to ask folks, how far is this place from Lujia Village?"

The few people over there saw the policemen accompanying the carriage, and probably guessed the identity of the people in the carriage, so they didn't dare to neglect and pointed in a direction.

"Go straight along this road, when you encounter a fork, go to the southwest one, and you will see it in less than two miles."

"Thank you fellow for letting me know!"
