On the Avenue

Li Tianqing and the old man came to Chen Shi's house and met Grandpa Chen Shi and the big black dog. Li Tianqing caught a glimpse of the Hongyi cannon standing in the corner and the black iron pellets in the doghouse. His heart skipped a beat. He coughed and said, "Grandpa, let's not trouble others. We'll stay under the godmother's tree tonight." It’s too late.”

The old man didn't look at the corner and said with a smile: "Since you are here to be a guest in someone else's house, why would you move out? Brother, I'm here, Li Jindou in Quanzhou, so I take the liberty of disturbing you."

Grandpa Chen Shi quickly returned the courtesy and said: "I am Chen Yindu, a family member of Qianyang Mountain. The humble house is not big, but there are two vacant rooms, which is suitable for a stay. I am just afraid that I will neglect you two."

Seeing that he was talking well, Li Jindou felt happy and said with a smile: "Don't dare."

Li Tianqing hurriedly tugged at his collar. Li Jindou was puzzled. Li Tianqing pursed his lips towards the corner. Only then did Li Jindou see Hongyi Cannon and felt awe-struck.

Li Tianqing quietly pointed to the main room again. Li Jindou looked and saw a mourning hall in the main room, candles and incense on the altar table, and a tablet with famous taboos written on it.

"What did this old brother just say his name was?"

Li Jindou's heart suddenly hit him. The name written on the tablet was clearly Chen Yindu!

"It should just be a rural custom... No, Chen Yindu smells like a corpse!"

He felt awe-struck in his heart. This was the smell that the human body gave out when it died. It was very unique.

This smell will never be forgotten once you smell it once!

"This man's body is dead, but he is still alive! He is not evil, he is just transforming into evil. What is the secret technique?"

His mind was racing, searching the classics he had read and heard to see if there was any secret technique like this, but he couldn't find it!

"There is such a person hidden in a small village. Could it be that their grandfather and grandson also came here for the true king's tomb? Is Li Kefa's death related to him?"

Li Jindou thought of this and smiled: "Brother Chen, we can't live in vain. This is a small thought, please accept it."

He took out a small ingot of silver, which weighed about three taels.

Chen Yindu looked at the silver in his palm, a smile appeared on his blue-white face, and said with a smile: "You're welcome, brother." After that, he accepted the silver.

The moment the palms of the two people touched, a wind started blowing from the ground, and suddenly the wind howled. The wind was so weird that it blew from bottom to top. There was no feeling in the courtyard of Chen's house, but there was a strong wind above Chen's house, blowing high into the sky!

A cloud in the sky suddenly melted like ice and snow, dissipated in the wind, and ceased to exist.

This strong wind came and went quickly. In the blink of an eye, the wind stopped and calm returned.

The yard was peaceful and peaceful, with nothing unusual. Chen Shi and Li Tianqing only heard the strange wind whistling in the air, but felt nothing else.

The two looked up and saw nothing strange.

Li Jindou's face changed slightly, and he laughed and said: "There are strange people hidden in the mountains and wild fields. My brother has a bold mind, which is admirable."

Just now, he made contact with Chen Yindu's palms. It seemed that he was just giving the other person money, but in fact he wanted to test the other person's ability, which caused a sudden strong wind.

However, in this test, he failed to test the other party's depth.

His eyes flashed, and he thought Chen Yindu's hand must be cold to the bone, but unexpectedly it was warm, which aggravated his curiosity.

"He has a heartbeat, and his energy and blood are flowing. He looks like a corpse but not a corpse. Weird, weird. What kind of secret method is it that can refine an old and dead human body to this point?"

"We must find an opportunity to test it again!"

It was almost noon, and Chen Yindu said: "Brother Li, there is nothing good in the countryside to entertain our distinguished guests. I have lost my sense of taste and dare not use the fire to cook. I will trouble your distinguished guests to help themselves."

Li Jindou quickly clasped his fists and bowed: "I don't dare, I don't dare. My brother is busy, and my grandson has prepared his own preserved souls to deal with it with difficulty."

The moment he bowed, there was thunder in the yard, and there was a loud crack. Li Jindou's body was shaken, and a brilliant light appeared behind him involuntarily, illuminating Huangpo Village like daylight!

In the divine light stood a three to four feet tall Yuan Shen, which disappeared in a flash.

Li Jindou swayed slightly, finally stood firm, and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm going out for a walk."

Chen Yindu said: "Brother, please excuse me."

Li Jindou walked outside the house and came under the ancient tree. He couldn't bear it anymore and spurted out a mouthful of blood. He hurriedly took out the elixir and drank it quickly.

After a while, he felt better.

It's just that his face still doesn't look good.

He still failed to test the depth of this old man named Chen Yindu, but his own depth was tested.

Chen Shi helped his grandfather and grandson tidy up the west wing, cleaned it up, and then took Li Tianqing to visit his Hongyi cannon.

When meeting people of the same age, if you can't show off your most proud baby, wouldn't it be like wearing a white dragon fish and walking at night in brocade clothes?

Li Tianqing stroked the Hongyi cannon and suddenly said: "I heard that Prince Xiao had stolen the Jade Seal of the Western King and was hunted by the Shenji Battalion. The Shenji Battalion used eighty-nine Hongyi cannons, 890 soldiers, and one admiral. One military attache, the Central Army, Zuoye, Youye, and many experts bombarded Qianyang Mountain, but suffered heavy casualties. The gunpowder burning marks in the barrel of this cannon were still fresh. It should have been obtained from the battle scene. ?”

Chen Shi stood beside him and said with a smile: "Tianqing, you are very meticulous in your observations. When Xiao Wangsun and Jin Hongying were talking, I sat at the same table with them. After the battle, I rescued Xiao Wangsun and carried Without this, the Hongyi Cannon is still intact.”

Li Tianqing's heart skipped a beat, sitting at the same table as Xiao Wangsun?

That must be Xiao Wangsun’s accomplice!

Could it be that they, grandfather and grandson, have fallen into a den of thieves?

Chen Shi picked up the Hongyi cannon, put it on his shoulders, and said excitedly: "I will be the fort, and you can put the iron pellets in, light the fire behind it, and aim at the mountains in the distance to fire!"

Li Tianqing was startled and quickly refused.

He lives in the city, and the children around him are just like him, well-behaved, and everyone abides by aristocratic etiquette. Where has he played this before?

"Besides, black powder must be loaded into the barrel of the cannon before it can be blasted out."

Li Tianqing reminded Chen Shi, "Nowadays, Shenji Camp also has a machine box containing gunpowder. It is a cylinder with a mechanism and a firing pin on it. When the projectile is rolled in from the muzzle, it will hit the firing pin. In the machine box The gunpowder explodes and pushes the black iron projectiles out. If you want to fire another shot, it is more convenient to take out the machine box and replace it with another."

Chen Shi's eyes were bright: "Where can I get it?"

Li Tianqing shook his head and said: "This is the latest creation of the Shenji Battalion. It cannot be obtained easily. It is extremely dangerous for you to use yourself as a fort. You cannot play like this."

"How should we play?" Chen Shi humbly asked for advice.

Li Tianqing hesitated and said: "Maybe we can let two yellow scarf warriors carry the red cannon, which will save the artillery cart. But I can't draw talismans..."

"I can!"

Chen Shi said excitedly, then hesitated, "I don't know how to make black powder..."

Li Tianqing said: "I can."

At this point, he regretted a little, he shouldn't have said that. Looking at Chen Shi's expression, he knew that something would happen if he said these words.

Sure enough, Chen Shi gave him the task of collecting black powder, and he hid in the corner with the big dog. The dog was so sneaky that he didn't know what to talk about, and then the big dog reluctantly let him stab him.

Chen Shi took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, mixed cinnabar with dog's blood, activated the Sanguang Zhengqi Jue, and drew the Yellow Turban Hercules Talisman in one stroke. He quickly drew dozens of Yellow Turban Hercules Talisman. He was extremely skillful, but the shrine behind his head was still there. Now, the true energy has not been exhausted.

"What a powerful infuriating energy!" Li Tianqing secretly praised.

Old Chen's family had ready-made materials, and Li Tianqing also prepared black gunpowder. Chen Shi carried the red cannon, and Li Tianqing held a few black iron projectiles the size of his head. The two teenagers sneaked out, and the black pot dog followed them. in the back.

"You two little guys, don't run out!"

Li Jindou's voice came, calling them, and said with a smile, "I just discussed with Brother Chen and said that Xiao Chengcheng knows where the kiln is, and asked Xiao Chengcheng to take us there. Don't carry the Hongyi cannon out, be careful of being attacked. See. Come back from the kiln, and you can do it again."

Chen Shi was extremely disappointed and put the Hongyi cannon back unhappily.

Li Tianqing was also very disappointed. He put the black iron bullet back into the kennel and suddenly became alarmed: "What's wrong with me? I came to investigate the disappearance of the seventh uncle. I found that this family was acting suspiciously. It was very likely that they were related to Xiao Wangsun." How could a group of gangsters be so confused as to play cannon with Chen Shi? "

He secretly reminded himself that he must not be deceived.

Chen Shi packed up and went out with the book basket on his back. Li Jindou called out: "Tian Qing, hurry up and follow!"

Li Tianqing quickly gathered his emotions and quickly followed Chen Shi.

Although he was young and mature, he was still a child after all. He quickly put aside his vigilance just now and started talking and laughing with Chen Shi. Hearing Chen Shi talk about interesting things in the countryside, he couldn't help laughing and yearning for it.

When they entered the mountain forest, they saw dense forests and white mist floating in the forest. The mist was strange and only floated at the height of a person's chest. It was deeper and shallower. There was no mist below the chest and no mist above the chest.

They walked in the mist, and there was no noise of birds and insects around them. It became extremely quiet, and they could hear their own heartbeats and breathing.

Li Tianqing actually felt that this mountain forest had a sacred feeling, solemn and solemn.

Occasionally, you can hear a strange sound, low and long, like a mountain whispering.

Chen Shi slowed down and came to a huge ancient vine. A tattered red cloth strip was tied to the ancient vine, and it broke at the touch of a touch.

Chen Shi put down the book box, tore off the red cloth strip, took out a new red cloth strip from the book box and tied it on, took out a stick of incense, lit it and inserted it in front of the ancient vine root.

Only then did Li Tianqing notice that someone had built a circle with stones in front of the roots of the ancient vine, and there were traces of incense in the circle.

Li Jindou whispered: "Tian Qing, Sky Eye Talisman."

Li Tianqing quickly took out the Sky Eye Talisman and activated it. At this time, another world belonging to the mountain came into view.

There was actually a little girl in red sitting on the ancient vine, nodding slowly to Chen Shi and receiving his incense.

The scent of incense floated upwards and was absorbed by the little girl in red, turning into extraordinary power and condensing into a phase.

The appearance of the little girl in red is not clear yet, and she looks like she is about to be blown away by the mountain wind.

After Chen Shi finished doing this, he took them further into the mountains and forests.

Not far away, he stopped in front of a stone statue lying on its side among the rocks and soil. The stone statue was huge, and the part exposed above the ground was as tall as a person.

There is also a circle made of stones in front of the stone statue, and a red cloth strip is tied to one finger of the stone statue.

Chen Shi put on a red cloth strip and offered incense to the stone statue.

Li Tianqing noticed that the extraordinary power of this stone statue actually formed a shape. It was a chubby doll, sitting on the head of the stone statue with a smile, receiving his incense.

They followed Chen Shi into the mountain forest, and saw that in this ancient deep mountain, the majestic ancient trees, rugged rocks, and ancient ruins all had the appearance of being condensed with extraordinary power.

Chen Shi put incense for them, changed them into red cloth strips, and walked all the way. The mountains and forests were quiet and there were no intruders from any strange animals, which was quite strange.

"Xiao Shi, what are you doing?" Li Tianqing couldn't help but asked curiously.

"These are the paths that our villagers use to enter the mountains."

Chen Shi straightened up and said, "There are also some passers-by who often walk this road. They carry mountain goods to sell in and out of town. If they tie red ropes to the stone statues on these trees, they will not get lost."

Li Tianqing was stunned and asked again: "What about the incense?"

"Singing incense is for these mountain spirits, which is a sign of filial piety."

Chen Shi said, "The mountain spirits will protect the people walking on this mountain road after receiving the incense. Wild animals will not invade and bandits will not harm them. If you don't pay attention to the time and it gets dark, you can also hide in a place with red cloth strips. The spirit will protect passers-by from evil spirits.”

"Is it useful? Their appearance is so weak." Li Tianqing was puzzled.

"it works."

Chen Shi looked at the spirits on the mountain road with a peaceful face and his eyes were full of love for this mountain. "Once I was playful and played in the mountains for too long and forgot about time. I didn't pay attention until dark and hurried home. There was The evil targeted me, and I hid under the tree. The tree spirit protected me, and I fought tooth and nail with the evil, but the evil came to find me and I was saved."
