Wu Ming didn't show his face in front of Yan Heng.

As soon as Wu Dong flew over, he was caught by Wu Ming, and then he turned around and left the place.

Yan Heng and the others rode their horses for half a night's journey, and Wu Ming's round trip only took a cup of tea.

But when they returned to the barracks, the entire garrison had basically restored order. Torches, lanterns...all the things that could be used for lighting were taken out.

In the courtyard where Wu Ming lived temporarily, only one attendant was slightly injured. The general stationed here took a look and left in a hurry.Not long after Wu Ming left, Old Ghost Shang brought the fake Wu Ming into the house.At this moment, upon receiving a signal from Wu Ming with his divine sense, Old Ghost Shang opened the rear window and let him in to exchange with the dummy.

"Relaxed?" Old Ghost Shang put away the paper figurine and asked jokingly.

"If there is no more earthquake, you will be completely at ease." Wu Ming grabbed Wu Dong from his arms while saying, and handed it to Old Ghost Shang, "I'll give you a present."

"What?" The oil lamp in the house had been extinguished as early as the earthquake, and Old Ghost Shang took a closer look before he recognized the black mass as a crow.

"Immortal! Immortal!" Sensing the strength of Shang Laogui, Udon immediately chose a title that he thought was the most flattering, and called out flatteringly.

"Spirited?" Old Ghost Shang snapped his fingers and lit the lights in the room so that he could appreciate the udon carefully. "Do you have a name?"

"Udong! My name is Udong!" Udong took the initiative to fly to Shang Laogui's outstretched arm, "Adopt me! Immortal! God..."

"It's too noisy." Old Ghost Shang cast a sound-suppressing curse expressionlessly, causing Wu Dong to open his mouth, unable to make a sound, and then turned to look at Wu Ming, "What gift, you're just trying to trouble Shuidong Citation?"

"Whatever you think." Wu Ming shrugged, "What did you figure out just now? Will there be an earthquake tonight?"

"It will definitely not happen before dawn." Old Ghost Shang said, "But in the days to come, natural disasters like earthquakes may become the norm. To use an old-fashioned saying, this is just the beginning."

"What's going on?" Wu Ming was taken aback.

"When we met last time, I told you that the phenomenon of Houkai is imminent. But now, Houkai has already begun." Shang Laogui stroked Udon's feathers, "Speaking of which, since you have already Knowing that some people have traveled through time and some people have been reborn, don't you have any doubts about the overly strong aura here?"

"What do you suspect?" Wu Ming was still puzzled.

"The aura here is so strong that it's outrageous." Shang Laogui frowned, and quickly showed a clear expression, "By the way, with your cultivation level back then, it's normal to have no memory."

Wu Ming pouted, unable to refute.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, he had just started to practice, and the spiritual energy he could absorb every day was very limited. He only knew that the spiritual energy at that time was very abundant, but this abundance was only relative to his cultivation base—even if the spiritual energy at that time was only as good as it is now. One-tenth or even one-hundredth was also sufficient and sufficient for him at that time.

"Normal cultivation requires getting up early and going to bed late to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon. Here, do you need it?" Shang Laogui continued to ask.

"It seems... there is no need..." Wu Ming also felt that something was wrong.

Although it is not necessary to practice spells in winter and summer in summer like practicing martial arts, it is inevitable to get up early and stay late.During the period from when the moon is high to when the sun rises, the spiritual energy between the heaven and the earth is the purest. During this period, exhaling and performing exercises can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and the so-called day essence and moon flower are also named after this.

But after passing here, Wu Ming could absorb enough aura just by meditating in the room, and he never tossed himself from morning to night.

Before, Wu Ming only regarded it as a normal phenomenon of the second practice, and didn't think much about it, but now he was told by Old Ghost Shang that he realized something was wrong.

Earthquakes...too strong aura...continuous natural disasters...

After thinking about it, Wu Ming shivered, and blurted out, "It's like a volcano about to erupt!"

"No, it's not a volcano." Old Ghost Shang corrected, "It's more appropriate to describe it as a supernova."

"Do you dare to speak more clearly?" Wu Ming rolled his eyes.

"If you can't find a solution, what's the point of explaining it clearly?" Shang Laogui said lightly while teasing the udon in his hand, "Don't worry, if I can figure it out, the monks here can also figure it out Come out, these people will not just sit and wait for death. The Taoist priests of the orthodox sect have worked so hard to get you, and certainly not just to let you marry someone else. I reckon, they should be waiting for an opportunity, the so-called waiting for an opportunity move."

"Don't tell me your plan is to use the same to cope with all changes." Wu Ming is familiar with Shang Laogui's temper, and upon hearing this, he knows that there is nothing he can do.

"Anyway, the changes in the world never end in a day or two, and what I calculated is only a bad omen and death." The old ghost Shang said calmly, "Let's just wait patiently, they will definitely come to the door of."

"Us?" Wu Ming raised his eyebrows.

"Why, I can't stay with you for a few days?" Shang Laogui asked back, "Didn't you tell the sheriff that I am your master? If that's the case, what's wrong with entertaining me for a few days?"

"How many walls have you heard?!" Wu Ming's face was on fire, "Could it be that you have come here before I left Xiangping?"

"You two are concubines, how can I jump out and get in your way?" Shang Laogui said seriously.

"Your size, concubine! If you make fun of me again, I'll kill you little chirp!" Wu Ming became angry from embarrassment.

"Cut it, anyway, that thing is useless to me." Shang Laogui said indifferently.

Wu Ming gritted his teeth, but finally did not answer.

Old Ghost Shang always put on a dead face that he has nothing to love about, and he never cared about his face. Wu Ming was willing to bow down to him when he compared his face.

Helpless, Wu Ming could only call the attendant in the yard and ask him to arrange a house for Shang Laogui to live in, which can be regarded as a clear way for Shang Laogui's existence.

After being tossed by the earthquake for a long time, Wu Ming fell asleep again when it was almost dawn.

As soon as he woke up, Wu Ming heard someone talking in the main hall next door, and the voice sounded like Yan Heng.

Wu Ming immediately got up from the bed, put on his clothes, and walked out of the inner room.

The person speaking in the main hall was Yan Heng, while the person sitting on the other side talking to him was Old Ghost Shang.

Wu Ming was not surprised.Shang Laogui was originally a magic stick, and he is very good at fooling people, not to mention he is still a real skill, even if he doesn't say anything, he can calm people down by just showing his hands casually.

"Why are you back?" Wu Ming stepped over.

"With such a big incident, how can we go out?" Yan Heng turned his head when he pushed the door, saw that he was about to come to talk, immediately stretched out his hand, and pulled him to sit beside him.

Wu Ming didn't think much, held Yan Heng's hand, and sat down beside him, and then he noticed that Old Ghost Shang was looking at him with a half-smile.

Wu Ming looked back at Old Ghost Shang with a pair of white eyes, and asked, "You guys already know each other?"

"You can introduce it again." Shang Laogui held up the glass teacup, with an elegant appearance of an outsider.

I made the glass, you made the tea, no one is idle.

Wu Ming rolled his eyes, turned his head and said to Yan Heng: "This is Shang Gui, you can call him Mr. Shang, if you have to use honorifics, call him Old Ghost. Don't think he is young just because he doesn't have a beard. You don’t suffer from calling your ancestors.”

"Isn't it Old Shang?" Yan Heng glanced at Wu Ming, asking for his name, but thinking about his age in his heart.Although Shang Gui looked older than him, no matter how young he was, he would never be over 40 years old. How could he become an ancestor in Wu Ming's mouth?Could it be that this person is really good at keeping his face and rejuvenating his youth?

"Shang Gui is just a name, not a name." Shang Laogui explained on his own initiative.

"You're taking the liberty." Yan Heng said hastily.

"I told you that the ghost merchant taught me spells, and he is my unnamed master." Wu Ming continued, "If it is convenient for you, let him stay for a while. He is good at medicine and loves miscellaneous learning. The technique of divination is also involved, the reason why it came this time is to calculate that there will be disaster here."

"There is nothing inconvenient to say, it is Yan Heng's good fortune to have the old ghost come here." Yan Heng immediately continued, "I don't know if the old ghost has any preferences and taboos, but please tell me."

"He's very particular about it, and he can't finish talking about it for three days and three nights." Wu Ming interjected, "There is a way that the guest can do whatever he wants, and you can just find a place for him to live in. If you are not satisfied, He'll figure it out himself."

Is this an attitude that apprentices can use?

Yan Heng was very speechless, but seeing that Old Ghost Shang didn't show any displeasure because of this, he couldn't say much.Anyway, strange people and strangers have some eccentricities, maybe people think that Wu Ming is willful and unaffected.

Wu Ming actually wanted to ask why Yan Heng came back right now, but with Old Ghost Shang, even if he asked, Yan Heng might not be able to answer, so he had to endure his curiosity and ordered breakfast first.

As soon as he wanted to eat, Wu Ming realized that he had slept until noon.Yan Heng came back in the morning. Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, he didn't wake him up. He inspected the post-earthquake resettlement in the military camp on his own, and then entertained the merchant ghosts.

After lunch, Shang Gui offered to treat the wounded.

Yan Heng really wanted to see his abilities, but he wanted to ask Wu Ming something else, he pondered for a while, and finally sent his confidant to send the merchant ghost over, while he stayed behind.

As soon as the ghost merchant left, before Wu Ming could speak, Yan Heng asked first, "Is he really your master?"

"I've said it all, he's getting old, don't be fooled by his appearance!" Wu Ming knew that Shang Gui's face was too tender, so it was strange for Yan Heng not to be suspicious, "When I met him, he was like this The same appearance. How many years have passed, and he still looks like this—how old is he, you say?"

The body of a ghost cultivator needs to be replaced constantly, but Shang Laogui has a way to make his body look the same, which is even more miraculous than the plastic surgery of later generations.

Yan Heng was still dubious.But since this person can find Wu Ming accurately, he must be someone with thaumaturgy.And as far as his subordinates reported, no one knew how he entered the barracks last night, but he knew that as soon as the earthquake happened, that man took his wife to a safe place.

Seeing that Yan Heng was silent, Wu Ming immediately asked, "Aren't you going to Liaoxi? Why are you back?"

"After such a big natural disaster, if I, the county guard, don't come out to take charge of the overall situation, people will definitely think that I was buried by the earth dragon. At that time, what will happen to western Liaoning, my eastern Liaoning will definitely be in chaos." Yan Heng With a wry smile, he pulled Wu Ming into his arms, "What about you, are you alright?"

It's not because you're worried about me!

Wu Ming twitched the corners of his mouth and stretched out his arms, "Do you think I seem to be in trouble?"

"It's not like that." Yan Heng smiled slightly.In fact, when he came back, he went to see Wu Ming's bedside, and left quietly after seeing that he was intact.

"What to do next, disaster relief?" Wu Ming asked.

"That's the only way." Yan Heng nodded, "Speaking of which, I have hoarded a lot of food in the past two years. It was originally for preparations for wartime, but I never thought it would be used to help the victims."

"By the way, Shang Laogui said that this year is not good, and the earthquakes like last night may be very frequent." Wu Ming warned.

"Is this true?" Yan Heng was startled.

In the previous life, there was only severe cold and hot summer this year. Although death was unavoidable, but fortunately he dealt with it in a timely manner, and finally dealt with it safely.Unexpectedly, this life is worse than the last one, and the severe cold and earthquake came together.

Weather such as severe cold and hot summer can be avoided by manpower, but if there is a natural disaster such as an earthquake, let alone ordinary people, even a noble official like him can only resign himself to fate.

"I can't tell you how true it is." Wu Ming shrugged, "Shang Laogui's fortune-telling has always been punctual, and I'm telling you just to let you prepare early, just in case."

After thinking about it, Yan Heng could only ask, "Does the elder ghost have a way to crack it?"

"His solution is to respond to all changes with the same, do one's best, and obey the destiny." Wu Ming sighed helplessly.
