Zhu Mingzang's chest surged like a mountain, and his forehead ached.Sure enough, a dog can't change eating shit, a foolish king is a foolish king, everyone is here to discuss state affairs, he only cares about his poor little chick!Zhu Mingzang drew out his knife, and cursed: "Who the hell is full and free to kill your chicken? Fulan, tell me, will you become a queen? If you don't become a queen, I will beat your shit out! "

"You can't beat me." Fu Lan said calmly.

"You look down on me! You bastard, how dare you look down on me!" Zhu Mingzang burst into anger, "I will challenge you one-on-one!"

He swung his knife and was about to charge up, but all the monsters in the seat got up to stop him, Zhu Mingzang shoved them a stagger, and a bunch of pig-headed and dog-faced monsters fell to the ground and rolled into a pile.More monsters came up and surrounded him, trying to persuade him.The arena suddenly became a mess, and the monsters on the roof gloated at their misfortune, but they didn't think the chaos was enough, they knocked on the broken pots and yelled loudly.Zhu Mingzang managed to get rid of those blocking the way, and when he looked up, he found that the Dragon Bone Throne was empty, and that bastard Fu Lan was gone, only the black cat was sleeping on it.

The king disappeared, and the court discussion was in vain.The leaders of the various tribes were transformed into their original forms, those who rode the clouds rode the clouds, those who transformed the mist transformed into fog, and some monsters transformed into more profound forms. They got on a wooden cart, put on a thin black mule, and wandered down the mountain. .

Fu Lan didn't go anywhere, he went back to wash clothes.He said that he was very busy because he still had a pile of dirty clothes that had not been washed at home.By the stream, he was wearing looped arms, and a leather belt cinched his thin waist. The twisted wrist that had not entered the water was dazzlingly white in the sun.Before he started washing, he heard a roar, and Zhu Mingzang rushed over aggressively, kicking over the three-legged red lacquered wooden basin where his clothes were piled up.

Fulan: "..."

The red and green clothes floated into the water, and the colors were dyed.Fu Lan didn't say anything, just waded into the water silently, and picked them up one by one.Zhu Mingzang's head was smoking, and he said, "What are you doing? Who asked you to wash clothes here!"

"Liu wei, centipede and nine heads." Fu Lan said while choosing.

Zhu Mingzang: "..."

This kid Fulan is a good person, he will do whatever he is asked to do, whether it is washing and cooking, or helping other people raise their children.Liu Piji put the name of the child's father on top of his head, and he recognized it without even frowning.But Zhu Mingzang didn't know about keeping catkins and stealing men at the moment, so he was speechless for a while, before he said, "You make me a queen! If you don't make a queen, I will stay here until you make a queen! "

Fu Lan shook her head and said: "I won't marry her, I don't like her." He put the clothes into the tub and said, "I'm leaving here."

"Leave?" Zhu Mingzang was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

Fu Lan said: "I am no longer your emperor, you should find someone else."

"Fart your mother. In the battle of demons, the entire army of monsters in southern Xinjiang was wiped out. Now there are no monsters who have practiced for 300 years. Do you think anyone can be the co-lord of monsters? The monsters are fierce, cannibalism, and the same kind Fighting each other is commonplace in Jiugai. They control the southern border, and the consequences are not trivial. The position of the co-lord of the demons must be in the hands of our demon clan! Looking at the southern border, only you have a high enough cultivation base to defeat monsters and suppress them. If you don’t live in the 28th house, who should you be?” Zhu Mingzang said, “If it wasn’t for my lack of morality, I would have already sat down by myself, so how can I get you, an idiot?”

"But you are very noisy," Fu Lan hung her head and washed her clothes, "very annoying."

Fulan couldn't turn corners when she spoke, she was too straightforward, Zhu Mingzang was so angry that his face was flushed red, his face was trembling red like a boiling boiler, as if it was going to fry in an instant.Zhu Mingzang took a few deep breaths, managed to calm the breath in his chest, and said in a slow voice: "Forget it, I have already seen that you are not good at governing the country. It's okay, now you have a baby, and I will take care of your baby if I take care of it." Yes. As long as you marry Liu Ning, make her your queen, and stay peacefully in southern Xinjiang, I promise not to disturb you, and let you wash, cook, and raise chickens and ducks."

Fu Lan only said two words, "No marriage."

Ren Zhu Mingzang exhausted his lips and tongue, but he didn't speak anymore, he just washed his clothes in silence.Zhu Mingzang gritted his teeth, looked at Fulan's back for a while, and said, "Who is the fiancée you mentioned first?"

Fu Lan ignored him.

The rustling wind whirled around in the bamboo forest, and the sharp bamboo leaves fell among them, Zhu Mingzang's cold eyes flashed like tigers and wolves.This monster is intent on killing the fiancée that Fu Lan said.Fu Lan noticed something, and slowly turned her head to look at him, Xiao Sha Qi condensed around her body.

"It's the stray dog ​​you took in, right? I saw him during the court meeting, and you brought him to southern Xinjiang. My subordinates heard that he is your pet." Zhu Mingzang sneered silently, " As early as in the tomb of the gods, I saw that you treated him differently. I thought you were a brother, but I didn't expect to be a lover. Why, you, a wild tire that jumped out of the cracks in the rock, also moved the hearts of all people?"

Fu Lan was silent for a while, then said: "I don't want to kill you."

"I don't want to kill you either, Fu Lan." Zhu Mingzang pressed his hand on the iron-blue knife handle, "Ordinary people pay attention to the three cardinal principles and five constant principles. If you can't raise a baby, you can't pass it on to the family. He is just playing with you, and when he has enough, he will throw you away. In the back of your mind, marry a decent woman to carry on the family line. There are indeed men in the world who worship each other and call each other brothers and sisters, but when they reach their age, they still have to get married and have children. What I told you is from the bottom of my heart. Don’t know what is good or bad .If he leaves you and runs away in the future, what will you do? Or," Zhu Mingzang sneered, "he has another brother, so what should you do?"

Now Fulan fell silent, turned her gaze, and stared at the stream in a daze.The brook is gurgling and flowing, and the sky shines on it, crushed by the ripples and waves.The cool wind brushed Fulan's hair, he was silent, as if he was thinking seriously about the question Zhu Mingzang raised.After a while, the quiet man finally spoke.

His voice is very soft, like the thin wind in the mountains.

"Then I'll lock up my brother. From now on, he can only call me brother."

Qi Yin squatted under the mottled bamboo bushes to bury the chicks. The scenery here is beautiful and suitable for building a tomb.He dug a small hole, wrapped the dead chicks in a cloth of floral soil, and put them in one by one.A wooden sign was erected at the head of the pit, on which was written "Fu Lan and Qi Yin's Chick Tomb".

As he was buried, a shadow was cast in front of him, Qi Yin raised his head, and saw Fu Lan holding a wooden basin, which was piled with clothes as high as a hill.Fu Lan saw the corpse of Chick Cub, she was stunned, squatted down beside him, and said in frustration: "I'm sorry."

"what happened?"

"I didn't protect our chick well." Fulan lowered his head, with his hands on his knees, like an honest country youth.

Qi Yin stroked the top of his soft hair, "It's okay, someone must be making trouble. It's too cruel, such a cute chicken cub will not be spared."

Fu Lan rubbed against his palm, and asked softly: "Xiao Yin, would you recognize someone else as your elder brother?"

"Why should I recognize someone else as my brother?" Qi Yin asked suspiciously.

Fu Lan said blankly: "I don't know."

"..." Qi Yin was speechless for a while, his brother's mind was different from others', and the question was thoughtless.He didn't care, lowered his head and continued to bury the chicken, and said, "Brother, have you found out that I have been raising you since we met?"

Fu Lan was stunned, staring at him blankly.

Qi Yin raised his eyes and smiled, the sun filled the big boy's black eyes, the brilliant gold was shattered, mixed with the heavy black, there was a different kind of vitality.He is not bad-looking, with his father's shadow in his eyebrows and eyes, but he is used to standing in the corner on weekdays, like a weed without any sense of existence, even if others see him, they can't keep his appearance in their minds.Qi Yin said with a smile: "I don't have much savings, my energy is limited, and I can only support one elder brother."

Fu Lan nodded vigorously, as if she felt relieved, she lowered her head and stopped asking further questions.

Qi Yin held a chick in his palm, "But I always feel that something is wrong, brother, look, they don't have any wounds on their bodies, it seems that they were not killed by monsters."

The black cat came out of nowhere, "That's right, if it was really killed by these starving ghosts, there wouldn't even be a single hair left by now. The old man asked the women, and they said that before The same goes for the chickens and ducks they raised, they died suddenly. They felt that their death should not be in vain, it would be better to sacrifice to their Wu Zang Temple, and the chickens and ducks died well.”

"When did the previous chicken and duck die?" Qi Yin asked.

"The ninth day of last month." The black cat said.

The ninth day of March is not a special day.Qi Yin was puzzled and couldn't figure out what to do after thinking for a long time, they bought another half a basket of chickens, and planned to squat by the side today to see what was going on.As night falls, the sky and the earth seem to be turned off, and only the red octagonal lanterns under the eaves of the stilted buildings are shining in the mountains.Fulan pressed Qi Yin's back, the spiritual power flowed along Qi Yin's meridians, and the little fish was released from Qi Yin's palm.The small fish swayed their tails in the wind and sneaked into the gaps between the fence and the straw piles. The world was silent, and they heard the cries of frogs in the distance and the howling of wolves from the other side of the mountain.

After staying up for a long time, there was no special movement, Qi Yin didn't hold back, and fell asleep halfway with his arms around the black cat.As he was sleeping soundly, he was suddenly slapped on the back. When he opened his eyes, he saw the chickens in the fence fall down one by one, twitching on the ground.However, there was still no one around, not even a ghost.They went out and rushed down, and all the chicks were dead.

Qi Yin bent down and wanted to enter the fence, but Fu Lan stopped him and asked him and the black cat to wait outside.The situation inside is unknown, and the place is narrow, so two people can't get around in it, so it's really better for Fulan to go in alone.After a while he came out with a handful of mud in his hand.Qi Yin thought that there was something in the soil, and poked his head to see, but it was just a handful of mud.Master Cat sniffed, showing a thoughtful expression.Could it be that the mud itself is tricky?Qi Yin also went up to sniff, and almost fell backwards.Chicken and duck feces are piled up next to the chicken cage all the year round, and the manure has turned into soil and has a strong smell.

"What's wrong with the soil?" Qi Yin asked while pinching his nose.

"You mortals are not sensitive to smells, but we monsters are much stronger than you," said the black cat. "Although this smell has feces in it, there is also a trace of corpse smell that you can hardly detect."

Qi Yin was taken aback, "You mean we buried a corpse under our house?"

"That's right," the black cat said while grinding its teeth, "some blind-eyed guy had the audacity to bury the corpse under our house. The corpse's breath went into the ground, poisoning our chickens and ducks to death."

His uncle, who is so wicked?Thinking of sleeping on top of the corpse yesterday, Qi Yin had goose bumps all over his body, no wonder he always felt so cold at night.Qi Yin and Fu Lan borrowed shovels and lifted the soil.The ground floor of the stilted building is low, and it is very uncomfortable to dig the soil and bend over.Fortunately, the monsters in the village like to watch the fun, so after digging for a long time, a circle of monsters surrounded them, and Qi Yin sent them money to help dig.

After digging for a long time, the body was finally carried out.It was a scorched black boy, beyond recognition.Because he had been burned, his breath was gone, so he could only be identified as a mortal from his appearance.Qi Yin checked his nose and lungs. He had been dead for too long, and there were worms in them. It was so rotten that he couldn't tell if he was burned before death or after he died.

It's really strange, the southern border is a place occupied by monsters, ordinary people can't avoid it, how can there be ordinary people here?It didn't matter if it wasn't eaten by the monster, and it was burned to death.

"Is it a Taoist priest who sneaked into southern Xinjiang?" Qi Yin sized him up.

Nvluo came in from the crowd of monsters, knelt down and poked the charred corpse's cheek, "Yo, she's a little beauty."

"It's burned like this, can you still see it?" Qi Yinnahan said.

"I am good at appreciating handsome young gentlemen," the girl said triumphantly, "The real beauty is not in the flesh but in the bone, which is called the beauty bone. Look at this bone, the cheekbones are thin, the seal is wide, and the jaw Liuli, at first glance, he is a handsome young man."

These sisters have plausible words, and Qi Yin is speechless.

The black cat asked the monsters around where the fire had occurred in recent months, and everyone shook their heads.There are trees everywhere in their area, and the stilted buildings are all made of fir. If there is a fire, the whole village will suffer.If there is no fire, where is this dead body burned to death?

Fu Lan touched the excavated soil and frowned.

Qi Yin asked him what was wrong, Fu Lan said: "The soil is not from here."

"What do you mean?" In the darkness of the night, Qi Yin lit a fire pocket and examined the soil carefully.Looking at it, we can see the difference.The excavated soil is loose and light brown in color.The soil in the fence was black and muddy from the accumulation of feces.Qi Yin looked around, the soil around the corpse was full of loose soil.

Even more weird, the guy who buried the corpse not only buried the corpse, but also buried the soil around the corpse here.

"Then where did this soil come from? Have you ever seen such soil nearby?" Qi Yin took a closer look, and there were a few rotten toon leaves in the soil.

"Yes," Fu Lan said, "Bashan Temple."

Everyone was startled.

Qi Yin asked in surprise: "Aren't you the only one who can enter the Bashan Temple?"

"It's not the same now. I used to think that only idiots can enter, but there are thousands of things we didn't expect. Isn't this a thousand-year-old monster?" The black cat said, holding its paw.

"Who the hell is this?" Qi Yin folded his arms like a black cat, "If he can talk, let's just ask him."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the child corpse slowly opened his eyes, and a pair of cloudy green eyes stared straight at him.
