Forced Marriage [Cultivation]

After Chenyue disappeared, Jiang Suxing returned to the cave and sat down on the rock, feeling a little strangely melancholy.

But before he could feel any more loss, Zhen Zhen packed a package and urged him, "Patriarch Jiang, we should go."

"Go?" Jiang Suxing was a little confused for a moment, "Where are you going?"

"Go to Changle Palace and find your people from West City. Don't you want to go back?"

"That's right..." Jiang Suxing nodded, he should go to Changle Palace to find Gu Baitang and the others.And that hateful Li Qingyi, I really can't rest assured that this person will stay by Gu Baitang's side.

Jiang Suxing's eyes couldn't see strong light, so after covering his eyes with a white cloth, Zhenzhen found him a straw hat to wear, with black gauze hanging around it to block out some sunlight.

Zhen Zhen helped him walk to the entrance of the cave, Jiang Suxing walked very slowly, he looked back into the cave, feeling very strange in his heart.

Not sad, but just uncomfortable.Like, there is always some lingering melancholy.

The reason may be that he suffered such a catastrophe, and he cultivated here for a month, and developed some feelings.Another one is Chen Yue's departure.

According to what Zhenzhen meant, Chenyue originally had 120 years of lifespan here, but she blew herself up and obtained two parts of the ghost king's supernatural power with her mortal body.

How could Jiang Suxing, He De, let Chen Yue treat him like this?

"Your Majesty said that he came here to experience calamity, and you are his calamity."

Zhen Zhen was rowing a boat and suddenly said this.

Jiang Suxing sat in the small boat, feeling uneasy.He doesn't understand, he and Chenyue have never known each other and have never had anything to do with each other, so why is he Chenyue's calamity?

The question troubled him and was always on his mind.

But then, he didn't have the energy to think about it.

"The messenger from West City? He left more than 20 days ago."

The guard at the post station said to a girl, he looked at the girl carefully, her facial features were beautiful and her face was good, but her complexion was dead pale, her eyes were big and dull, and people stared at her for a long time, a little permeating.If it weren't for the clear sky and bright sky, seeing it at night would surely scare one or two timid people to death.

Standing behind the girl was a man wearing a black gauze bucket hat and a white cloth over his eyes. His attire was a bit weird.But judging by his figure, he should be a man.

The girl asked, "Where did they go?"

The guard replied: "Of course I'm going back to the West City."

"Going back to the West City?" The girl was very surprised. She turned her head and glanced at the people behind her, and said, "They just went back to the West City by themselves? One of their disciples is missing, shouldn't they wait for him? Has no one looked for him? "

"There are quite a few of them." The guard said strangely, "I never heard that they lost a disciple."

"Where is Patriarch Jiang? Haven't they looked for Patriarch Jiang?"

"Patriarch Jiang?" The guards have been on duty here all the time, so they naturally recognized Patriarch Jiang, and said, "Patriarch Jiang is here, but he was seriously injured. When he left, he would be carried by a sedan chair."

The girl suddenly became anxious, and the hair that was originally tied at the back of her head suddenly spread out and fell on her face, reflecting her pale face and terrifying eyes. The guard was so scared that he took two steps back and sat on the ground.

"No! That's not Patriarch Jiang! Why are they all blind! They can't even recognize that Patriarch Jiang is not!..."

"Zhen Zhen."

At this time, the man yelled, his voice was as cold as water, and there was a slight tremor: "What's the use of scaring him. Brother guard, dare to ask what kind of injury that Jiang Patriarch got?"

The guard was so frightened that he closed his eyes and trembled, "Listen, I heard people say that an arm is missing..."

The man nodded knowingly, and said in a low voice, "It really is him."

Said to the girl, "Zhenzhen, let's go."

The girl returned to normal and helped the blindfolded man to leave.

He also said that when Jiang Suxing learned that Li Qingyi had disguised himself, his face turned pale with anger, and his chest seemed to explode.

What he couldn't figure out was how could Gu Baitang recognize Li Qingyi as himself? ?

And big brother, and Yuju, and even Chu Wan?

No, stay with him, he is related to Li Qingyi.This makes sense, if it is said that Yuju wants to deliberately cover up Li Qingyi, I'm afraid he does have a way to hide it.

But what about big brother?Brother, can't he recognize it too?Or is it that Yujuu even lied to his elder brother?

That's right, big brother is a fool, how can you count on him at a time like this.

Jiang Suxing was angry and annoyed, and suddenly became dizzy after walking two steps.This is the weather in May and June, and the sun is like fire.Jiang Suxing encountered such a catastrophe again, he had just recuperated in a dark cave for a month, now that he came into contact with such a scorching sun, he really couldn't stand it.I only feel dry mouth, chest and lung burst as uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Zhen Zhen was by his side at this time, helping him to the shade of the teahouse to rest.Then let the waiter serve a pot of herbal tea, poured a cup and drank it with Jiang Suxing.

After drinking the herbal tea, Jiang Suxing slowly recovered.This slowed down, and my heart became much clearer.

That Li Qingyi hid in the room all day long, not letting others see, relying on a face that resembles Jiang Suxing, it is indeed possible to hide it from everyone.But Gu Baitang and Jiang Zhoumian definitely couldn't let it go.The only one who can suppress these two people is Yuju.

If Yusuke is really a demon cultivator, he is the creator of this new world.Thinking about it, he wouldn't be the same as Li Qingyi, I'm afraid that Yuju's purpose is on the seed of the demon king.

I just don't know what role Yuju played this time, and did he really cover up Li Qingyi? ...

But if this Li Qingyi really entered the West City, I'm afraid something might not happen.There are many prohibitions in the west city, and there are all kinds of elders, it is impossible for Li Qingyi's unique skills to be impeccable.What's more, there is still the master, if Yu Su really protects Li Qingyi, the master will definitely not agree...

Thinking of Master, Jiang Suxing felt relieved.

That's right, it is absolutely impossible for Li Qingyi to deceive Master.

But when this happened, no one could sit still.Especially when Jiang Suxing thought of Li Qingyi pretending to be himself and spending time with Gu Baitang day and night, Jiang Suxing felt extremely unbearable.

"Zhen Zhen, you go find two thousand-mile horses, and we'll go back to West City right away." Jiang Suxing drank the tea in the bowl in one gulp, and said in a deep voice.

Zhen Zhen said: "Patriarch Jiang, they have been away for almost a month, and they may have arrived in the West City by now on the fairy boat. We will definitely not be able to catch up at this time..."

"If you can't catch up, you have to chase!" Jiang Suxing stood up, he was so anxious that he couldn't help getting angry: "If you don't go, I will go!"

"Don't worry!" Zhen Zhen grabbed him and said in a low voice, "I mean, I have a way, faster than a horse, maybe I can catch up with them."

Hearing this, Jiang Suxing became less anxious and asked: "What method?"

"This method can't be described as an outsider's way. You should be low and listen to me quietly."

Jiang Suxing bent down slightly, and heard Zhenzhen whispering in his ear: "Do you know why every time you use the bronze talisman you can attract ghost cultivators so quickly? Between the cultivation world and the underworld, there is a dark river..."

That night, at midnight, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and I couldn't see my fingers.

Zhen Zhen led Jiang Suxing out of the city, walked all the way to the southern and eastern suburbs of the city, passed through the mass graves, and walked into a dark and terrifying forest.

Jiang Suxing was blindfolded all the time, he was timid and afraid of ghosts, let alone Zhenzhen was a ghost.Although Zhenzhen has always been a normal girl in front of him who is well-dressed, Jiang Suxing's back will shiver as soon as he thinks of her appearance when she turned into a ghost.

I don't know how long I have been walking, I can faintly hear the wind crying in my ears, like ghosts crying and wolves howling.

When Jiang Suxing felt his hind legs go numb, Zhenzhen in front of her suddenly stopped, and the wind blew a strand of hair onto Jiang Suxing's neck.

"Patriarch Jiang, we are here." Zhen Zhen said quietly, her voice was very low.

Jiang Suxing's voice trembled, "Zhenzhen, can you speak well, I'm a little scared."

"Hush." ​​Zhen Zhen suddenly motioned him to silence, and held him tightly.

Jiang Suxing's whole body stiffened and he didn't dare to move at all.He could feel some strange sounds around him, the sound of wind, and howling ghosts and wolves.

He guessed that since this is a dark river in the underworld, there must be many ghosts wandering on it...

"Patriarch Jiang, I will lead you away from now on. No matter what you hear or step on the road, you can't make a sound. Do you understand?" Zhen Zhen whispered next to his ear.

Feeling Zhen Zhen's strange tone of voice and the strands of hair beside her ear, don't think she has definitely turned into a ghost.

Jiang Suxing didn't dare to speak, just nodded and held Zhenzhen's hand tightly.I thought it would be best if his eyes were covered with a white cloth so he couldn't see anything.

Jiang Suxing's experience of this night in the dark river will definitely be unforgettable for the rest of his life. He doesn't know how he survived.

To be precise, he didn't make it through.Because when he was in the middle, he couldn't bear the stimulation and passed out, and he was carried out by Zhen Zhen in the second half.

When he woke up again, Jiang Suxing was lying on a wooden board.His eyes were still covered with a white cloth, but he listened to the hustle and bustle of people around him, smelled the aroma of barbecue, and felt the smoothness of the sunlight moving between the lines of his skin, and he suddenly felt a lot more at ease.

Well, this is back to the world.

A piece of torn barbecue meat came to his lips, Jiang Suxing opened his mouth to eat it, and asked, "Where is this?"

"I don't know, there are flowers everywhere here, the location should be near the west city." Zhen Zhen said vaguely, hearing the voice, she should be eating meat.And the movement is not small, quite bold.

"Huahai Town?" Jiang Suxing immediately sat up, pulled off the white cloth from his eyes, and suddenly a burst of white light hurt his eyes, and he almost went blind.Zhen Zhen quickly put a black gauze straw hat on his head, and after getting used to it for a while, Jiang Suxing slowly saw the cherry blossoms on both sides of the street, looking around, it looked like a sea of ​​flowers.

"It really is Huahai Town." Jiang Suxing stood up and looked around. That's right, this is Huahai Town.Huahai Town is a small town not far from the foot of Xicheng Mountain. It is famous for its blooming flowers all year round.

Jiang Suxing was overjoyed, but he never thought that this dark river is so magical.At first, when Zhen Zhen told him, he didn't expect much, at most he thought that the journey through the dark river would be shorter, but he never expected that from Changle to Xicheng, the distance they traveled for a month before and after they went would be so short in a flash. Arrived.

Thinking about Jiang Suxing's previous life, these journeys took half a year; in this life, there is a fairy ship, and the half-year journey is shortened to one month; now they are crossing this dark river, and it takes only a blink of an eye!

Jiang Suxing said happily: "Zhenzhen, this dark river is really miraculous, I have seen it today!"

Zhen Zhen said: "But this is our secret, you must not reveal it, otherwise it will attract those monks flocking to it, and it will definitely cause turmoil in the two worlds. And my lord, as the master of the underworld, must bear the responsibility. I told you because I saw that Your Majesty treats you so well."

Jiang Suxing nodded, "It's natural, don't worry."

In order to repay Zhenzhen, Jiang Suxing took her for a stroll around Huahai Town and bought some gadgets.

The ragged white dress on Zhen Zhen's body has been worn for many years, and it is dirty and torn.Jiang Suxing bought her two new sets of clothes, and took her to a jewelry store to buy some gold and silver earrings, bracelets, pearls and hairpins.

Zhen Zhen refused at first, not used to these things.But when the new clothes were put on, and he stood in front of the bronze mirror, he couldn't even move his feet.

The two walked around Huahai Town, and it seemed that Zhen Zhen had changed.Putting on a brand-new water blue long dress, inserting a golden step rocker on the black cloud bun, and smearing rouge and gouache on her cheeks, her face instantly glowed.

"Tsk tsk, Zhenzhen, you should also dress up, it looks so pretty." Jiang Suxing couldn't help admiring.

Zhen Zhen lowered her head and smiled, looking at her current appearance, said in a low voice: "It's nice to be a human being."

Now that he has arrived at the foot of Xicheng Mountain, Jiang Suxing is suddenly not in a hurry.He took Zhen Zhen to a famous restaurant in the town for dinner, planning to go back after having a good meal.

The restaurant business here is good and overcrowded.When you come, you have to wait in line, wait left and right, wait for almost half an hour, Zhen Zhen is a little impatient.

Jiang Suxing reassured her, "Hurry up, that table will leave soon, and it's our turn. This restaurant is delicious, and there is no other place."

After finally waiting for the two of them to sit down, Jiang Suxing ordered a few signature dishes and was waiting for them to be served.At this time, a few monks came down from the private room upstairs, and when they saw the belt badge, Jiang Suxing recognized that it was a disciple of the master of ceremonies.

When the disciples going out in the west city pass by Huahai Town, they often go to the town to fight, which is normal.It's just that these disciples looked hurried, as if something serious had happened, and one of them accidentally slipped on the stairs and almost fell down.

Jiang Suxing had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and helped him up.

"Thank you." The disciple thought it was an outsider at first, and was about to leave, when he looked up at the face under the black veil cloak, he was startled, and said loudly: "Jiang Suxing?!"

Jiang Suxing said: "It's me. You are in such a hurry, but what happened?"

The disciple grabbed Jiang Suxing's arm and said: "Jiang Suxing, we just received the news that the old man who is in charge of teaching him is gone!"
