I just want to be a quiet man

Not long after, there was a gurgling sound in the blood pool, and blood bubbles the size of fists popped out.

Between the blood bubbles, countless bloody things floated up and down.

Those things looked quite like rats, but they were hairless and pale pink, and there was something constantly wriggling on the smooth flesh.

It looked very eerie and creepy.

Just as these mouse-like things were constantly changing, a gray-robed monk moved slightly, and immediately said in a deep voice: "A team sent by the East Tower has been wiped out."

"The one who made the move was the fourth princess of the Liugai Dynasty, Zhongkui Jingyi."

Hearing this, a grey-robed monk not far away said calmly: "Fortune gains and losses, and the reincarnation of heaven and earth. It is their responsibility, their destiny, and even more so for the sake of the peace of the world. merit."

"The Liugai Dynasty does not know the number of days, it will be destroyed."

"These four princesses finally refused to accept reincarnation and beheaded the guardian. They deserve to die."

"I'll go there myself, take her body and spirit, and blend them into the pool of blood. It's not in vain to give birth to her."

"No." The head monk suddenly said, and said lightly, "The fourth princess of the Liugai Dynasty is the arrogance of the Liugai Dynasty. According to the promise made to the Tianshengjiao at the beginning, the hypocritical Tianjiao belongs to the Tianshengjiao."

"Tell the Tiansheng Cult the location of Zhong Kui Jingyi, and let them pick it up by themselves."

"Yes." Many gray-robed monks were silent for a moment, and someone said slowly, "My sect is the guardian of this world. Although all living beings are greedy and selfish, we must not act like them. We really need to keep our promises."

"Just follow Shaofutu's words."

"If the natural teaching can't solve it, let's do it again."

The grey-robed monk who spoke first nodded, and immediately took out the sound transmission talisman and notified the Tianshengjiao.

※※※

Landslides and ground cracks, beasts and birds flew in shock.

The beautiful mountains and rivers just now were completely changed in an instant.

Zhong Kui Jingyi was calm, unscathed, and even the beads and tassels on the side of her bun were neat. Standing alone in the air, she slowly put away the spear in her hand.

In front of her, several magicians were broken in two, unable to fall.

"Bang bang bang..."

The wreckage fell to the ground, mixed with the corpses of many demon cultivators, and the blood flowed and soaked the ground.

Zhong Kui Jingyi snorted coldly, pointed at the air, and a little spiritual fire ignited. In an instant, all these demon cultivators, including their blood that had seeped into the ground, were completely burned without leaving any traces.

Then the figure flashed, and he returned to the Fazhou in an instant, without any nonsense instructions: "Keep on the road!"

※※※

After half a day.

Outside the city of Miao, the original forests have been cut down, the ground is forcibly flattened by mana, and there are rows of temporary houses built by magic techniques such as "turning mud into stone" and "gathering sand into pillars". rise from the ground.

Around the house, layers of protective formations were deployed, and there were puppets wandering around on guard.

According to the agreed time, Dou Dai took Mo Yiqian and other juniors and juniors to stand in the open space in front of the house ahead of time, waiting patiently.

Soon, a dharma boat broke through the sky and landed with a roar.

The cabin door opened, and a girl in a beautiful dress and a jade crown walked out first. Her beautiful face was beautiful, her eyes were shining brightly, and her beauty was full of heartiness.

"Fourth princess!" Dou Dai who was about to go forward to greet her was slightly startled.

Before, his uncle only said that he would send people to send these displaced Li Shus to Miao City for resettlement, but he never expected that the escort would be the fourth princess of the Liudao Dynasty.

Zhong Kui Jingyi nodded at him, and after greeting each other, he immediately said: "The noble sect is currently short of manpower. Among this group of Li Shu, there are quite a few people with outstanding roots. The demon cultivator must set up an ambush halfway. I am worried that the ordinary disciples will escort you It wasn't safe, so I went there myself."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Dou Dai saluted again and said with concern, "Did your Highness meet a demon during this trip? I don't know what's going on?"

Zhong Kui Jingyi said: "There are indeed demon cultivators blocking the way on the road, but I have killed them all, and the people with me are safe and sound, without any accidents."

While speaking, let the hatch open, and said, "Dou Zhenchuan can check it."

Dou Dai nodded and said: "It's not because you don't believe in Your Highness, but in an emergency, Dou must be careful."

As he said that, he took Mo Yiqian and others, entered the Dharma boat, and used means to check all the people in the cabin. After confirming that they were correct, he arranged for the puppets to send them into the boat that had been prepared for a long time according to whether they were infected or healthy. camp.

When the arrangements of these mortals were almost done, Dou Dai pondered for a while, and said: "Your Highness, there is another problem in Miaocheng, which should be solved by Dou himself, but Dou was ordered to sit in Miaocheng and could not get out. I don't know if Your Highness has time. , can you help me?"

"It doesn't matter." Zhong Kui Jingyi, who was about to step on the Fazhou and leave, said immediately, "What's the matter?"

Dou Dai said: "Most of the water used in the city originally relied on the river beside the city. But not long ago, traces of the disease were found in the river, which was suspected to be caused by the infected Li and Shu throwing themselves into the river. To be safe, Dou ordered People also filled all the wells in the city. Now the water depends entirely on the disciples of the water system, which is very inconvenient for Li Shu."

"Therefore, I would like to ask His Highness to help purify the river."

Zhong Kui Jingyi said: "In this case, I will go and see the situation. However, I have a way to solve the pollution of ordinary plagues."

"But this time it is not an ordinary plague, and we must guard against the evil of the Demon Sect."

"It's best to go with a brilliant alchemist to check the source of the river disease, so as to ensure nothing goes wrong."

Dou Dai nodded and said: "In Miao City, there happens to be an alchemist who passed the examination of the fifth-rank alchemist of the Gui Dynasty. His alchemy is amazing, and there is absolutely no problem."

"When I arrived in Miaocheng before, it only took one day to refine the materials for the city, which solved the urgent need of Miaocheng's high-grade evil spirit pills."

"Right now, there is no alchemist in the nearby cities that is better than this master."

Zhong Kui Jingyi became interested: "The alchemist who passed my assessment of the fifth-rank alchemist? Then I must know him, who is it?"

Hearing this, Dou Dai shook his head, and said via voice transmission: "The sect said that this alchemist has some grievances with the Demon Dao. Although he came to Miao City to help out of pity for the souls, he is unwilling to reveal his true colors. Therefore, Dou is not Know his identity."

"Please ask Dou Zhenchuan to lead the way, I'll go see this master." After hearing this, Zhong Kui Jingyi pondered for a while, and then said, "Anyway, it's about a city's water use, and there should be no delay, the sooner the better. "

Chapter 20: Purifying water sources.

Miao city.

Alchemy room.

Nanke Menghuo slowly stopped, and Pei Ling finished refining another elixir.

Seeing the task given to him by Sun Mu, only the last few pills remained unrefined.

Just as he took out the furnace of pills and was about to turn on the furnace again, a stabbing pain came from his vest, and his cassock activated, interrupting his alchemy.

After regaining control of her body, Pei Ling took out the jade bottle, put away the elixir, and sealed it with a spell. Then, she took out the ingredients for the next elixir and was about to entrust it when she suddenly noticed someone approaching outside.

One of them is Dou Dai, while the other has a vaguely familiar aura, and he should have seen it somewhere.

Thinking of this, Pei Ling did not continue alchemy, but put away the alchemy furnace, straightened his robes, and went out directly.

As soon as he went out, he saw Dou Dai leading a young female nun.

The female cultivator looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a slender face, white teeth and fresh lips, a rosy skirt, a brocade drape, a jade crown on her head, gorgeous and dignified attire, and a demure and elegant demeanor.

Seeing this female cultivator, Pei Ling immediately remembered that "Little Zizaitian" was attacked during the alchemy ceremony of the Liugai Dynasty, and he and other alchemists were thrown from "Little Zizaitian" by a big hand. He was rescued, and then he fell from the sky, and it was a female cultivator from the Lulu Dynasty who rescued him... The one in front of him is exactly the female cultivator from back then!

At this moment, Dou Dai stepped forward to salute, and said: "Master, this is the fourth princess of the Liugai Dynasty, Zhongkui Jingyi, come to help me in Jiuyi Mountain."

"Your Highness, this is the master I mentioned." Since he didn't know Pei Ling's name, Dou Dai referred to it as "Master".

Hearing this, Pei Ling was slightly taken aback, the fourth princess of the Liulian Dynasty?

Since he is wearing a wolf demon mask and is an alchemist of his own side, it is not easy to forcibly spy on him with his spiritual thoughts. Finally, Kui Jingyi took a few glances, but did not recognize his specific identity. Considering what Dou Dai said, the other party was unwilling to reveal his true colors She pretended that she didn't know him at all, and after saluting, she said, "The demon sect is rampant. Master, as a casual cultivator, has nothing to do with this battle, but he is willing to travel thousands of miles to Miao City to save the souls. It shows that he has a big heart and a heart." With benevolence, Jing Yi deeply admires it."

"I also invite the master to accept the mirror."

Pei Ling came back to his senses, and hurriedly replied: "Don't dare, it's just a matter of raising a finger, the two are the mainstays in protecting Li Shu."

Dou Dai was concerned about the source of water, and he didn't want to waste time on politeness, so he directly talked about the business: "I have a task, and I would like to ask Master for help."

"I'm just an alchemist, and my strength is low." Pei Ling said immediately after hearing this, "If it's related to alchemy, there's absolutely no problem, but if it's against the Demon Sect... forgive me, there's nothing I can do."

Dou Dai shook his head and said: "Master, don't worry, if there is a magic gate, the Fourth Highness will deal with it. The master only needs to refine the elixir."

Only then did Pei Ling feel relieved, nodded and said, "That's no problem."

Zhong Kui Jingyi said: "It's not too late, let's go now, the specific task, we will talk about it as we walk."

Hearing this, Pei Ling nodded in agreement. Anyway, as long as it is alchemy, it is not difficult for him.

So, he ordered Yu Xuezhao to stay in the city and follow Zhong Kui Jingyi alone.

The two quickly left Miaocheng, and Zhong Kui Jingyi said: "Master, the outbreak of the plague is sudden and menacing. Although so far, it seems that it is only aimed at mortals, but the evil door is vicious, so we must guard against it."

"Next, there are likely to be other changes."

"We must not be complacent."

Pei Ling nodded, and after a few words of agreement, he asked, "May I ask Your Highness, what is the specific task of this trip?"

Zhong Kui Jingyi said: "The river beside Miao City is polluted by epidemic disease. This is the only water source near Miao City. Since there is a problem with the river, the wells connected to the river are not safe. So now we are going to solve the water source problem. .”

Solve the water problem?

Not alchemy?

Pei Ling was taken aback, and was about to ask more clearly, when he saw the mist in front of him, and an extremely wide river appeared in front of him.

Zhong Kui Jingyi nodded and said, "The place is here."

After speaking, he put away his escape method and fell towards the embankment.

Seeing this scene, Pei Ling could only bite the bullet and also landed on the embankment.

The river in front of me was flowing slowly. From the naked eye, the water quality was excellent, crystal clear and sparkling.

But in the river water, there is a faint resentment, corruption, and even a rotten smell similar to a dead body.

Pei Ling frowned immediately. He didn't even use the [You Yan Po Hua Jian], so he could tell that there was obviously a big problem with the water in the river.

Not to mention mortals who drank it, even monks in the qi training period who drank the water would probably lose a layer of skin.

After Zhong Kuijing Yilue made an investigation, without any nonsense, he immediately took out a jade seal, threw it into the air, and shouted in a deep voice: "Jing!"

The jade seal instantly became larger, just two fingers, and it was as big as a mountain. Then, with a slight shock, a huge cloud seal "Jing" appeared out of thin air, and it became bigger and bigger, almost covering the entire river and the vast land on both sides of the river. All shrouded in it, the dazzling golden light gradually turned into a dazzling white light, and in the sight, there was a vast expanse of whiteness.

In Pei Ling's line of sight, the resentment, corruption, and corpse odor in the river...all dissipated little by little in the vast white light.

Until the end, the white light gradually subsided, and the river in front of me was clear, and the breath was fresh, like an empty mountain after rain, full of vitality.

After a while, the jade seal returned to the size of a thumb and fell into Zhong Kui Jingyi's hands.

She put away the talisman, then raised her hand to ingest a handful of river water, causing it to levitate in front of her eyes.

After watching for a while, Zhong Kui Jingyi frowned slightly, and then asked Pei Ling, "What do you think, Master?"

how about what?

Isn't the river water already purified?

Pei Ling was startled, but soon came back to his senses. When Zhong Kui Jingyi asked him this way, there was probably something wrong with the river, but the other party was still not sure.

With a flash of thought in his mind, Pei Ling cast out his divine thoughts, and secretly cast [Silent Flame Breaking the Delusion] to explore the river water, and soon found that there seemed to be some extremely subtle things in the river water.

But it is extremely concealed. He dare not reveal all his cultivation in front of Zhong Kui Jingyi, so it is difficult to distinguish it for a while.

Thinking of this, Pei Ling used a mask to cover it up, and then secretly operated [Resentful Nightmare Ability], the runes in his eyes rose and intertwined, and in his vision, he could immediately see that there was a curse in this cup of water, very faint...

【Resentful Nightmare Supernatural Ability】It was only used for a moment, and Pei Ling immediately stopped the supernatural power, but even so, Zhong Kui Jingyi turned her head and looked at him in an instant.

Pei Ling said calmly, "There may be some problems with the water in this river. It's best to go upstream first."

Zhong Kui Jingyi looked at Pei Ling suspiciously. For a moment just now, the other party gave her an extremely dangerous feeling.

But right now, she carefully distinguishes the other party's breath, but she doesn't notice anything...

Thinking of what Dou Dai mentioned when he took her to the alchemy room, this master traveled thousands of miles to Miao City to save people, and after arriving, the refined medicine had already saved the lives of a whole city of people, and it could even It can be said that there are boundless merits for the nearby cities that are short of elixir...

Zhong Kui Jingyi temporarily suppressed this doubt in her heart, and then asked: "The master is right, ordinary people still can't drink this water."

"I wonder if the master can refine the elixir to solve the river water problem?"

Pei Ling smirked slightly in his heart. It's a no-brainer to make targeted alchemy and create his own alchemy formula. He definitely won't.

However, the problem of the river is related to the curse, and he has the inheritance of the "curse". As long as he finds the source of the curse, he will have a solution.

Thinking about it, Pei Ling didn't dare to talk too much, and immediately said: "You can try it, now let's go upstream and have a look."

Zhong Kui Jingyi nodded, and the two used the escape method again and went upstream along the embankment.

After flying away for a certain distance, Pei Ling suddenly sensed that something was wrong. At the same time, Zhong Kui Jingyi stopped immediately, then grabbed Pei Ling's wrist, and the two of them turned into a stream of light in an instant, and fled to the side.

The next moment, a huge black net full of runes, venom, and ghosts descended from the sky. Seeing the two fleeing, the black net flickered and followed immediately, as if to engulf the two of them!
