Master is respected
Chapter 60
Xie Junzhuo had just been reborn back then, and with the hatred of the past and present in her heart, she was thinking about how to save Bai Lu, or how to meet Jiang Yuehan. As for others, she never cared about it.She spared the life of the thin monkey and sold him to be a slave, not because she was soft-hearted, but because Jiang Yuehan didn't like her killing people.
In the past, in her eyes, the life of the thin monkey was like an ant, not worth mentioning.This is the cause she planted, and today she is naturally required to repay the fruit.
She admitted that she sold the skinny monkey, but the antecedents must be explained clearly.She has a bit of the demonic nature of her previous life, but she is not an indiscriminate person.Thin Monkey has become a ghost, and she has a relationship that cannot be dismissed, and she will have to face this matter after all.
Xie Junzhuo's confession surprised everyone present, and the thin monkey shouted happily: "Did you hear that? She admitted it, she admitted it, she sold me to be a slave, she harmed me. If you want to hate, hate her, don't blame me."
The turn of the matter made everyone dare not make any judgments for a while. The innocent girl in their eyes suddenly became an idiot, and she did not hesitate to engage in human trafficking.Beneath her cute and kind appearance is a heart as hard as iron.
Stuttering and opening his mouth, his face blushed, he wanted to say something, but because he was too anxious, he couldn't say it.
Xie Junzhuo didn't change his face. It's not that she has never encountered the accusations of the past. This is nothing in front of her. Since she mentioned this matter, she is not afraid of others looking at her with strange eyes.When she passed by here, it was an accident to meet the thin monkey, and it was an accident within an accident to help her.
She has nothing to do with this small village, and the people here, except for one Niu Dazhuang, have nothing to do with her.
Skinny Monkey is the cause and effect of an accidental connection that should never have existed.
The thin monkey smiled smugly. Niu Dazhuang suddenly bent down and wanted to lift him up from the snow, but his outstretched hand missed and penetrated the thin monkey's body.The thin monkey is now a ghost, to put it bluntly, a soul, without the tiger's vitality, he can't even maintain his human form.
Niu Dazhuang was stunned for a moment, then punched the snow hard, his eyes were red, and he said angrily: "Shouhou, I treat you as a brother and a friend, I believe in you and let the girl follow you, but you plan to take her Selling it to Qing|lou? Don’t you know where Qing|lou is? You let the lard fool you? How could such a villain like you come out of our village! "
Xie Junzhuo's words may be nothing to others, but they are so shocking to Niu Dazhuang. On that day, he personally sent Xie Junzhuo to Shouhou's bullock cart. He agreed to let her find relatives, but Shouhou turned his back on his promise and betrayed his trust. .
If Xie Junzhuo had no means to save his life, she would be the one being sold now.Such a flowery little girl went to a place like a brothel, and her whole life was ruined.And the thin monkey will take the money from selling her, live comfortably for a while, brag to the outside world that he has made a lot of money, and will not consider Xie Junzhuo's life or death at all.
Niu Dazhuang was afraid for a while, and really wanted to slap his past self, why didn't he see Shouhou's character clearly.
The thin monkey was taken aback by Niu Dazhuang's words, and Xie Junzhuo also opened his beautiful eyes slightly, everything was different from what they thought.
"Niu, brother Niu is right, you, you villain, beast, beast!" Stuttering was also a little angry, and he came over and wanted to kick the thin monkey a few times, but it was also in vain.
They are all rural villagers, who are used to living a hard life and know what it feels like to be poor.When the times are bad, some families who can't survive will sell their daughters as a last resort, but they also sell them to be maids, and dare not send them to brothels.People who go to that kind of place are happy and happy, but people outside know that it is a man-eating devil's lair.
Ren Yazi, who gave away girls to brothels, was also the most despised by the villagers. Even if the family wanted to send the girl out, they would not let such a person take away.
The thin monkey's ideas and actions were perfect, which completely touched the hearts of the villagers.
After Niu Dazhuang and Stammer both expressed their opinions, those onlookers also began to talk one after another.There are many people who scold Shouhou, but there are also some people who say that Xie Junzhuo has done too much. After all, she was brought back by Shouhou and Niu Dazhuang.
Before Xie Junzhuo made a statement, Niu Dazhuang glared at those people first. Xie Junzhuo was brought out by her, and she asked the doctor to treat him and stayed in their house to take care of him. To be honest, Shouhou didn't do anything.On the contrary, he harbored evil intentions.
The thin monkey was ashamed of what everyone said. He not only suffered for a moment because of his greed, but also paid the price of his life in the end.He deceived Xie Junzhuo to be lonely and defenseless, but he didn't expect her to have a lot of background.The skinny monkey capsizes in the gutter, no matter how you look at it, it is reaping its own fruit, good and evil will be rewarded.
Xie Junzhuo can't be blamed for this kind of thing, but the thin monkey was unwilling, and the anger of the crowd became the last straw that overwhelmed him. The evil desire in his body was soaring, and blue flames surrounded his body, and the whole figure seemed to come out of the fire generally.
Everyone was startled, Xie Junzhuo hurriedly pulled Niu Dazhuang away.The thin monkey jumped up from the ground, and instantly turned into a green-faced and fang-toothed ghost, Xie Junzhuo blocked his sharp claws with his sword, flipped his wrist, and threw him over.
The thin monkey rolled around on the ground and landed on its hands and feet. He bowed his body and looked around, staring at the trapped tiger demon, let out a piercing long howl, and went towards the tiger demon.
The guards of the tiger demon hurriedly dodged and fled in all directions.
Xie Junzhuo pointed his toes, and his body soared into the air, like a bird spreading its wings, flying over the thin monkey's head.She landed lightly in front of the tiger demon, and before the thin monkey pounced, she stabbed the tiger demon's head with a sword, piercing it through.
The tiger demon didn't even have time to make a pitiful scream, so it was completely dead.Gou Chen absorbed its vitality, and the blood flowed on the snow, dyeing it a dazzling red.
The thin monkey roared angrily, jumped at the tiger demon's paw, turned around, and swept directly towards Xie Junzhuo's face.The claws wrapped in blue flames caused slight fluctuations in spiritual power, and it took only an instant to transform from a ghost to a demon.
Xie Junzhuo used his right foot as a fulcrum, shifted his body backwards, brushed his paws across her face, and hooked off a few hairs that were floating around her ears.The thin monkey rushed forward after missing a hit, he didn't care at all at the moment, his beast-like sharp claws were as hard as iron, wishing to tear Xie Junzhuo's belly open.
Xie Junzhuo only defended and did not attack. She poured spiritual power into the blade when everyone retreated to a full distance and would not be affected by her.
Xie Junzhuo is not good at using swords, but she is smart and eager to learn, and she lived with Jiang Yuehan for ten years in her previous life, so she still has some experience in swordsmanship.Her sword is cold, like the snow in this winter, but it can bloom beautiful flowers, warming spring with one sword.
The thin monkey that flew over like a wild beast collided with the blade of Xie Junzhuo's sweeping sword. The sword energy was like the cold night and the moon, and the thin monkey was ejected directly. Blood flowed, but the blue fireworks were slowly extinguished, unable to survive.
The thin monkey's face was a little pale, he struggled to get up, and Xie Junzhuo's second sword fell down.This sword is wind, blowing from nowhere, invisible yet tangible.The blade entered from the front, pierced through the spirit platform, and exited. The thin monkey screamed, the flames all over the body were extinguished, and the spirit body became thinner.The fangs and claws faded away, and he returned to his original appearance.
Xie Junzhuo squatted down, took out a talisman from the storage bag, and stuck it directly on the thin monkey's forehead.The talisman burned instantly, turning into a bit of aura and blending into the thin monkey's body, making him not look so weak.
Xie Junzhuo pulled Gou Chen out, stood up and said, "This talisman can maintain your normal state of drinking a cup of tea, go say goodbye to your family."
The thin monkey was stunned, but Xie Junzhuo didn't even look at him, and turned to look for Niu Dazhuang.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll run away?" The thin monkey sat up, Xie Junzhuo's contempt made him feel so worthless.
"Without my talisman, without the tiger demon that gives you energy, you will die if you leave." Xie Junzhuo stopped, and among the villagers in the distance, Niu Dazhuang was waving at her.Xie Junzhuo smiled, and then said: "It is difficult to enter reincarnation if you are a minion for a tiger. But this matter has something to do with me. I can save you. As for whether you will continue to be a human or become a beast, it depends on your own destiny."
Will become a ghost, he is a person with evil intentions, not to mention the thin monkey let the tiger demon eat people.If it had been handled by someone else, he would have been out of his wits long ago.
The thin monkey understood Xie Junzhuo's meaning. There was no one in his family to worry about, but he was sorry for his sister.The thin monkey took a breath, got up from the ground, and ran to his sister's house.
Seeing that he disappeared quickly, the villagers couldn't help shouting, thinking that Xie Junzhuo hadn't seen him.
Xie Junzhuo stepped forward and explained to them.She left the thin monkey a retreat, and did not put him to death.This seems to be easier for the villagers who grew up with the thin monkey.They sighed deeply, and neither of them spoke.
Niu Dazhuang is the most sentimental, with a gloomy face. He is angry when he is angry, and angry when he is angry, but after so many years of feelings here, he has a somewhat compassionate heart.
"Girl, uncle, I'm sorry." Niu Dazhuang looked at Xie Junzhuo, apologetic.
Xie Junzhuo smiled and said: "Uncle, what did you say? Some things are beyond your control. Besides, I was angry at the time, and there was something wrong."
The thin monkey had evil thoughts when he saw Xie Junzhuo's pretty face, and he hadn't always been like this.We live in the same village, and it is normal to have occasional disputes. It is not particularly hard to live, and it will not tear your face and make random suspicions.
Xie Junzhuo would not offend others because of this kind of thing, let alone it was impossible to do it in the first place.
Niu Dazhuang saw that Xie Junzhuo had no grudges, he was silent for a moment, rubbed his hands and said, "Thank you."
This thank you is not to thank her for saving the village, but to thank her for giving the thin monkey a way out.
Xie Junzhuo opened his mouth, hesitated for a while and didn't say much, but smiled and let the matter go.
The scourge of the tiger demon has been resolved, and everyone who has been worrying for many days can finally sleep peacefully. He stutters and proposes to let Xie Junzhuo stay in the village for two more days. Xie Junzhuo thinks about it and agrees.There was no tiger disaster in the village, but the barriers were damaged to varying degrees, and Xie Junzhuo had to help them repair them.
A group of people dispersed happily. As for the tiger, Xie Junzhuo handed it over to the villagers and did not intervene.
Xie Junzhuo still lives in Niu Dazhuang's house, and after seeing his sister, Shouhou went straight here to look for her.It doesn't take long to make a cup of tea, and the power of the talisman is about the same.The thin monkey stood in the yard of Niu Dazhuang's house, his body almost transparent.He saw Xie Junzhuo coming out and knelt down in the yard.
Xie Junzhuo paused, and the thin monkey kowtowed to her three times, saying: "Little Taoist priest, I..."
Xie Junzhuo raised his hand, stopped the thin monkey, and motioned him not to say too much.The thin monkey was stunned, with a bit of unwillingness on his face, he gritted his teeth, and swallowed the words back.
Xie Junzhuo also pointed to the sword, drew a spell out of thin air, and opened a fist-sized whirlpool door in the air.The thin monkey understood, turning into a ray of light and drilling into it.As soon as he disappeared, Xie Junzhuo immediately withdrew his technique, a cold white color appeared on his face, and beads of sweat ooze from his forehead.
This technique looks simple, but it actually consumes a lot of spiritual energy.With her current cultivation base, her fist-sized ghost door is already the limit, and she can only extradite one person.
Niu Dazhuang came out of the house, Xie Junzhuo looked at him, and he was looking at him too.Looking at each other, Niu Dazhuang scratched his head and said, "Did Skinny Monkey want to thank you just now?"
The thin monkey went straight to the yard to kneel and kowtow to Xie Junzhuo. In Niu Dazhuang's view, he realized that he was wrong and wanted to apologize before leaving.
Xie Junzhuo was startled for a moment, then said, "Really?"
There was a bit of worry on the thin monkey's face, Xie Junzhuo didn't look like he wanted to thank her, but he was asking for something.What he asked for was nothing more than his family members, if he could help, Xie Junzhuo could do it after just asking, and he didn't need to waste his time talking.
Xie Junzhuo's question stopped Niu Dazhuang from asking, his brows were slightly frowned, and he muttered to himself that he shouldn't.
Xie Junzhuo ignored him, and stood alone in the yard for a while, adjusting his spiritual energy.
There was no farm work in winter, and it was the New Year's Eve. Everyone in the village was very leisurely. They divided the tiger for meat, peeled off the complete tiger skin, and sent it to Niu Dazhuang's house for Xie Junzhuo.
Xie Junzhuo looked at the tiger skin and didn't say anything, but the aunt next door sighed in the yard, saying that she didn't know how Shouhou's sister would spend this winter.She was childless, delirious, and forgot about the stove every now and then, and the house was as cold as a layer of ice.My aunt wanted to take her over, but she wouldn't.
He does not mean that.
Xie Junzhuo asked Niu Dazhuang to put away the tiger skin, and sell it in the town after the new year, maybe he can sell it for a good price.Niu Dazhuang responded and saw Xie Junzhuo walking out.
"Girl, it's snowing heavily, where are you going?"
"I'll go for a walk in the mountains." Xie Junzhuo said without turning his head, and walked away step by step on the snow.
If the person eaten by the tiger does not become a ghost, if he is unlucky, he will be bound in the tiger's territory.Sister Shouhou's child is still young, if she can't find her way to the ghost world, she will be trapped.
Xie Junzhuo didn't pay attention to it before, but today he suddenly remembered the look on Shouhou's face when he left, and felt a little uneasy.
The mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and the road in Hutouling was difficult to walk. The branches of the big trees were bent by the snow, and they blocked the road in a haphazard manner.Xie Junzhuo took out the gouchen, cut firewood to clear the road, and at the same time searched for the tiger demon's lair with the residual breath on the gouchen.
The majestic king of weapons has become a machete. If Gou Chen could speak, he would probably angrily call Xie Junzhuo a prodigal son.
The forest is extremely quiet, and hibernating animals will not go out to look for food. Occasionally, one or two birds will flutter their wings in a hurry.
Xie Junzhuo turned over a hill, and a cave appeared at the foot of the hill. The cave was big and deep. There was no snow at the door, but instead, there was a child's torn clothes, stained with blood.Next to the clothes, squatting a transparent child.He put his head on his knees in fear and blocked it tightly with his arms.
Xie Junzhuo walked over, the child was startled and trembling.He looked small and pathetic, huddled.Xie Junzhuo's throat tightened, memories came flooding back, and he had mixed feelings for a moment.
Bai Lu also has a younger brother who is even older. Her parents are very happy to have a child, but the child is not in good health and stays sick.Xie Junzhuo has seen it a few times, he has a tiger head and a tiger brain, and there are two small tiger teeth when he smiles, he is very heartless.
They were still children, so they suffered for no reason.
Xie Junzhuo sighed and took away the child's soul.The kid stayed on the mountain for too long, his soul and body were weak, and he couldn't go through the gate of hell alone, and needed a period of recuperation.
The mountains were blocked by heavy snow on the left and right, and the long road was difficult to travel. Xie Junzhuo stayed in the village for a few more days, and it would not be too late to send the child away.
The little ones and the big ones were rescued, and the trivia to be dealt with one after another.
Xie Junzhuo put the child's soul on her little paper man to warm up for two days, and the child looked much more solid.Xie Junzhuo calculated that he could let the children meet Sister Shouhou, so he found time to go to Sister Shouhou's house.
She didn't go at the right time, and Shouhou's sister fell asleep, holding the straw figure she made in her arms, and a pair of adult's shoes and a pair of children's tiger-toed shoes were placed beside the bed.The fire in the house went out again, and the water in the bowl was covered with a thin layer of ice.
Xie Junzhuo cast a spell, and the fire in the stove was lit up again, somewhat warm.
Shouhou's elder sister couldn't accept the reality for a while and lost her mind. Xie Junzhuo stood by her bed for a while and fed her a Qingxin pill.The dead cannot be resurrected, but the living will continue to move forward.
Because Sister Shouhou couldn't wake up for a while, Xie Junzhuo greeted the neighbors and went back to Niu Dazhuang's house first.She came here to save people with good intentions, but no one thought that something would happen in just a few hours.
Slender Monkey's sister slept until it was dark, and the neighbors made dinner and came over to give her some. The crazy person didn't spread the food this time, and hugged the straw man to call him a child. After eating, I thanked my neighbors.
The neighbor thought it was strange, but because she still kept silent, she didn't care too much at the moment, and went back after saying a few words of relief as usual.Xie Junzhuo said before that if someone woke up, he would tell her, but the neighbor thought it would be in the middle of the night, and it was not convenient to call the little girl out, so he wanted to wait until the daytime to talk.
However, Shouhou's elder sister didn't wait until daytime. In the dead of night, she took advantage of the tinder Xie Junzhuo left for her to keep warm, and lit her house with a fire.In the raging fire, she hugged the straw man and sang a lullaby, welcoming death with a smile on her face.
It was too late for the villagers to wake up, the house was covered with snow and the house was not too burned, but the flammable things in the house were piled up by Slim Monkey's sister, and she sat inside, as if she had a cremation for herself.The fire started from within, and it was too late for them to put it out.
Xie Junzhuo got up when she heard the movement, and when she rushed over, everyone had already carried Sister Shouhou's body out.The child hiding on the little paper man seemed to realize something, and ran out of the paper man. Xie Junzhuo wanted to catch him but failed.
The children did not run towards the corpse, but ran into the charred house.After a while, the child came out again, holding an adult by the hand.
Thin Monkey's elder sister saw Xie Junzhuo, she paused, nodded at Xie Junzhuo, turned around and left with the child, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Xie Junzhuo froze in place. She let Shouhou Sister regain her sobriety, hoping that she would cheer up and live.But it was this bit of kindness that pulled her out of the illusion and once again faced the cruel reality.Madness can allow her to see the child, but reality cannot.
The last bit of hope was gone, and she fell into the abyss of despair.
"Did I do something wrong?" Xie Junzhuo muttered to himself, not listening to what the people behind him said, and left alone.The redemption she thought was Shouhou's life-threatening talisman, and the hell in her eyes was a hotbed for others.
Sister Shouhou's funeral was very simple, Xie Junzhuo didn't show up, she sat on the threshold of Niu Dazhuang's house all day.No one blamed her for this incident, after all, it had nothing to do with her, but the neighbor who delivered the food blamed herself very much, thinking that it was her own carelessness that caused this disaster.
Xie Junzhuo didn't say that Shouhou's sister had regained consciousness. That was a secret that would be hidden in Xie Junzhuo's heart forever.
It was New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye, and Xie Junzhuo was still at Niu Dazhuang's house. She repaired a barrier for the village and arranged one at Niu Dazhuang's house by the way.The joy of the New Year dilutes the depression of the village in the past few days. Everyone made a meal of hundreds of dishes to thank Xie Junzhuo, and asked Xie Junzhuo to taste every dish.
Xie Junzhuo didn't shirk, and simply ate a little.She hasn't celebrated the New Year for many years, and this day means nothing to her.But the villagers didn't think so. They lived a lively life, and every household posted festive couplets.
As usual at night, Xie Junzhuo went to do as the Romans did, so he sat on the threshold with Niu Dazhuang.Niu Dazhuang hung a lantern at the door of his house, and there was a blessing written by Xie Junzhuo on it.The lamp is always bright, which is a good omen for the next year.
"Girl, this is for you." Niu Dazhuang took out a small red envelope made of red cloth from his body, and put it in Xie Junzhuo's palm with some embarrassment.
Xie Junzhuo touched it casually, and knew that it was money. She was a little surprised. Niu Dazhuang said with a silly smile: "I am your elder in terms of age. If you can't go back to celebrate the New Year for our village, you must have missed the New Year's money from Master." .I'll give you another one to celebrate the new year and suppress evil spirits. The money is not much, so let's make it auspicious."
The folks do have the custom of giving lucky money to children, but this is not popular in Taoism.
Xie Junzhuo laughed in a low voice while holding the red envelope. She looked at the rare stars in the sky, and her thoughts drifted away.
Niu Dazhuang's words aroused her thoughts, and she was also a little curious. If she was in Sanqingzong now, would Jiang Yuehan give her the lucky money?
"Master, I miss you."
In the past, in her eyes, the life of the thin monkey was like an ant, not worth mentioning.This is the cause she planted, and today she is naturally required to repay the fruit.
She admitted that she sold the skinny monkey, but the antecedents must be explained clearly.She has a bit of the demonic nature of her previous life, but she is not an indiscriminate person.Thin Monkey has become a ghost, and she has a relationship that cannot be dismissed, and she will have to face this matter after all.
Xie Junzhuo's confession surprised everyone present, and the thin monkey shouted happily: "Did you hear that? She admitted it, she admitted it, she sold me to be a slave, she harmed me. If you want to hate, hate her, don't blame me."
The turn of the matter made everyone dare not make any judgments for a while. The innocent girl in their eyes suddenly became an idiot, and she did not hesitate to engage in human trafficking.Beneath her cute and kind appearance is a heart as hard as iron.
Stuttering and opening his mouth, his face blushed, he wanted to say something, but because he was too anxious, he couldn't say it.
Xie Junzhuo didn't change his face. It's not that she has never encountered the accusations of the past. This is nothing in front of her. Since she mentioned this matter, she is not afraid of others looking at her with strange eyes.When she passed by here, it was an accident to meet the thin monkey, and it was an accident within an accident to help her.
She has nothing to do with this small village, and the people here, except for one Niu Dazhuang, have nothing to do with her.
Skinny Monkey is the cause and effect of an accidental connection that should never have existed.
The thin monkey smiled smugly. Niu Dazhuang suddenly bent down and wanted to lift him up from the snow, but his outstretched hand missed and penetrated the thin monkey's body.The thin monkey is now a ghost, to put it bluntly, a soul, without the tiger's vitality, he can't even maintain his human form.
Niu Dazhuang was stunned for a moment, then punched the snow hard, his eyes were red, and he said angrily: "Shouhou, I treat you as a brother and a friend, I believe in you and let the girl follow you, but you plan to take her Selling it to Qing|lou? Don’t you know where Qing|lou is? You let the lard fool you? How could such a villain like you come out of our village! "
Xie Junzhuo's words may be nothing to others, but they are so shocking to Niu Dazhuang. On that day, he personally sent Xie Junzhuo to Shouhou's bullock cart. He agreed to let her find relatives, but Shouhou turned his back on his promise and betrayed his trust. .
If Xie Junzhuo had no means to save his life, she would be the one being sold now.Such a flowery little girl went to a place like a brothel, and her whole life was ruined.And the thin monkey will take the money from selling her, live comfortably for a while, brag to the outside world that he has made a lot of money, and will not consider Xie Junzhuo's life or death at all.
Niu Dazhuang was afraid for a while, and really wanted to slap his past self, why didn't he see Shouhou's character clearly.
The thin monkey was taken aback by Niu Dazhuang's words, and Xie Junzhuo also opened his beautiful eyes slightly, everything was different from what they thought.
"Niu, brother Niu is right, you, you villain, beast, beast!" Stuttering was also a little angry, and he came over and wanted to kick the thin monkey a few times, but it was also in vain.
They are all rural villagers, who are used to living a hard life and know what it feels like to be poor.When the times are bad, some families who can't survive will sell their daughters as a last resort, but they also sell them to be maids, and dare not send them to brothels.People who go to that kind of place are happy and happy, but people outside know that it is a man-eating devil's lair.
Ren Yazi, who gave away girls to brothels, was also the most despised by the villagers. Even if the family wanted to send the girl out, they would not let such a person take away.
The thin monkey's ideas and actions were perfect, which completely touched the hearts of the villagers.
After Niu Dazhuang and Stammer both expressed their opinions, those onlookers also began to talk one after another.There are many people who scold Shouhou, but there are also some people who say that Xie Junzhuo has done too much. After all, she was brought back by Shouhou and Niu Dazhuang.

Everyone was startled, Xie Junzhuo hurriedly pulled Niu Dazhuang away.The thin monkey jumped up from the ground, and instantly turned into a green-faced and fang-toothed ghost, Xie Junzhuo blocked his sharp claws with his sword, flipped his wrist, and threw him over.
The thin monkey rolled around on the ground and landed on its hands and feet. He bowed his body and looked around, staring at the trapped tiger demon, let out a piercing long howl, and went towards the tiger demon.
The guards of the tiger demon hurriedly dodged and fled in all directions.
Xie Junzhuo pointed his toes, and his body soared into the air, like a bird spreading its wings, flying over the thin monkey's head.She landed lightly in front of the tiger demon, and before the thin monkey pounced, she stabbed the tiger demon's head with a sword, piercing it through.

Xie Junzhuo used his right foot as a fulcrum, shifted his body backwards, brushed his paws across her face, and hooked off a few hairs that were floating around her ears.The thin monkey rushed forward after missing a hit, he didn't care at all at the moment, his beast-like sharp claws were as hard as iron, wishing to tear Xie Junzhuo's belly open.
Xie Junzhuo only defended and did not attack. She poured spiritual power into the blade when everyone retreated to a full distance and would not be affected by her.
Xie Junzhuo is not good at using swords, but she is smart and eager to learn, and she lived with Jiang Yuehan for ten years in her previous life, so she still has some experience in swordsmanship.Her sword is cold, like the snow in this winter, but it can bloom beautiful flowers, warming spring with one sword.

Xie Junzhuo pulled Gou Chen out, stood up and said, "This talisman can maintain your normal state of drinking a cup of tea, go say goodbye to your family."
The thin monkey was stunned, but Xie Junzhuo didn't even look at him, and turned to look for Niu Dazhuang.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll run away?" The thin monkey sat up, Xie Junzhuo's contempt made him feel so worthless.
"Without my talisman, without the tiger demon that gives you energy, you will die if you leave." Xie Junzhuo stopped, and among the villagers in the distance, Niu Dazhuang was waving at her.Xie Junzhuo smiled, and then said: "It is difficult to enter reincarnation if you are a minion for a tiger. But this matter has something to do with me. I can save you. As for whether you will continue to be a human or become a beast, it depends on your own destiny."
Will become a ghost, he is a person with evil intentions, not to mention the thin monkey let the tiger demon eat people.If it had been handled by someone else, he would have been out of his wits long ago.
The thin monkey understood Xie Junzhuo's meaning. There was no one in his family to worry about, but he was sorry for his sister.The thin monkey took a breath, got up from the ground, and ran to his sister's house.
Seeing that he disappeared quickly, the villagers couldn't help shouting, thinking that Xie Junzhuo hadn't seen him.
Xie Junzhuo stepped forward and explained to them.She left the thin monkey a retreat, and did not put him to death.This seems to be easier for the villagers who grew up with the thin monkey.They sighed deeply, and neither of them spoke.
Niu Dazhuang is the most sentimental, with a gloomy face. He is angry when he is angry, and angry when he is angry, but after so many years of feelings here, he has a somewhat compassionate heart.
"Girl, uncle, I'm sorry." Niu Dazhuang looked at Xie Junzhuo, apologetic.
Xie Junzhuo smiled and said: "Uncle, what did you say? Some things are beyond your control. Besides, I was angry at the time, and there was something wrong."
The thin monkey had evil thoughts when he saw Xie Junzhuo's pretty face, and he hadn't always been like this.We live in the same village, and it is normal to have occasional disputes. It is not particularly hard to live, and it will not tear your face and make random suspicions.
Xie Junzhuo would not offend others because of this kind of thing, let alone it was impossible to do it in the first place.
Niu Dazhuang saw that Xie Junzhuo had no grudges, he was silent for a moment, rubbed his hands and said, "Thank you."
This thank you is not to thank her for saving the village, but to thank her for giving the thin monkey a way out.
Xie Junzhuo opened his mouth, hesitated for a while and didn't say much, but smiled and let the matter go.
The scourge of the tiger demon has been resolved, and everyone who has been worrying for many days can finally sleep peacefully. He stutters and proposes to let Xie Junzhuo stay in the village for two more days. Xie Junzhuo thinks about it and agrees.There was no tiger disaster in the village, but the barriers were damaged to varying degrees, and Xie Junzhuo had to help them repair them.
A group of people dispersed happily. As for the tiger, Xie Junzhuo handed it over to the villagers and did not intervene.
Xie Junzhuo still lives in Niu Dazhuang's house, and after seeing his sister, Shouhou went straight here to look for her.It doesn't take long to make a cup of tea, and the power of the talisman is about the same.The thin monkey stood in the yard of Niu Dazhuang's house, his body almost transparent.He saw Xie Junzhuo coming out and knelt down in the yard.
Xie Junzhuo paused, and the thin monkey kowtowed to her three times, saying: "Little Taoist priest, I..."
Xie Junzhuo raised his hand, stopped the thin monkey, and motioned him not to say too much.The thin monkey was stunned, with a bit of unwillingness on his face, he gritted his teeth, and swallowed the words back.
Xie Junzhuo also pointed to the sword, drew a spell out of thin air, and opened a fist-sized whirlpool door in the air.The thin monkey understood, turning into a ray of light and drilling into it.As soon as he disappeared, Xie Junzhuo immediately withdrew his technique, a cold white color appeared on his face, and beads of sweat ooze from his forehead.
This technique looks simple, but it actually consumes a lot of spiritual energy.With her current cultivation base, her fist-sized ghost door is already the limit, and she can only extradite one person.
Niu Dazhuang came out of the house, Xie Junzhuo looked at him, and he was looking at him too.Looking at each other, Niu Dazhuang scratched his head and said, "Did Skinny Monkey want to thank you just now?"
The thin monkey went straight to the yard to kneel and kowtow to Xie Junzhuo. In Niu Dazhuang's view, he realized that he was wrong and wanted to apologize before leaving.
Xie Junzhuo was startled for a moment, then said, "Really?"
There was a bit of worry on the thin monkey's face, Xie Junzhuo didn't look like he wanted to thank her, but he was asking for something.What he asked for was nothing more than his family members, if he could help, Xie Junzhuo could do it after just asking, and he didn't need to waste his time talking.
Xie Junzhuo's question stopped Niu Dazhuang from asking, his brows were slightly frowned, and he muttered to himself that he shouldn't.
Xie Junzhuo ignored him, and stood alone in the yard for a while, adjusting his spiritual energy.
There was no farm work in winter, and it was the New Year's Eve. Everyone in the village was very leisurely. They divided the tiger for meat, peeled off the complete tiger skin, and sent it to Niu Dazhuang's house for Xie Junzhuo.
Xie Junzhuo looked at the tiger skin and didn't say anything, but the aunt next door sighed in the yard, saying that she didn't know how Shouhou's sister would spend this winter.She was childless, delirious, and forgot about the stove every now and then, and the house was as cold as a layer of ice.My aunt wanted to take her over, but she wouldn't.
He does not mean that.
Xie Junzhuo asked Niu Dazhuang to put away the tiger skin, and sell it in the town after the new year, maybe he can sell it for a good price.Niu Dazhuang responded and saw Xie Junzhuo walking out.
"Girl, it's snowing heavily, where are you going?"
"I'll go for a walk in the mountains." Xie Junzhuo said without turning his head, and walked away step by step on the snow.
If the person eaten by the tiger does not become a ghost, if he is unlucky, he will be bound in the tiger's territory.Sister Shouhou's child is still young, if she can't find her way to the ghost world, she will be trapped.
Xie Junzhuo didn't pay attention to it before, but today he suddenly remembered the look on Shouhou's face when he left, and felt a little uneasy.
The mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and the road in Hutouling was difficult to walk. The branches of the big trees were bent by the snow, and they blocked the road in a haphazard manner.Xie Junzhuo took out the gouchen, cut firewood to clear the road, and at the same time searched for the tiger demon's lair with the residual breath on the gouchen.
The majestic king of weapons has become a machete. If Gou Chen could speak, he would probably angrily call Xie Junzhuo a prodigal son.
The forest is extremely quiet, and hibernating animals will not go out to look for food. Occasionally, one or two birds will flutter their wings in a hurry.
Xie Junzhuo turned over a hill, and a cave appeared at the foot of the hill. The cave was big and deep. There was no snow at the door, but instead, there was a child's torn clothes, stained with blood.Next to the clothes, squatting a transparent child.He put his head on his knees in fear and blocked it tightly with his arms.
Xie Junzhuo walked over, the child was startled and trembling.He looked small and pathetic, huddled.Xie Junzhuo's throat tightened, memories came flooding back, and he had mixed feelings for a moment.
Bai Lu also has a younger brother who is even older. Her parents are very happy to have a child, but the child is not in good health and stays sick.Xie Junzhuo has seen it a few times, he has a tiger head and a tiger brain, and there are two small tiger teeth when he smiles, he is very heartless.
They were still children, so they suffered for no reason.
Xie Junzhuo sighed and took away the child's soul.The kid stayed on the mountain for too long, his soul and body were weak, and he couldn't go through the gate of hell alone, and needed a period of recuperation.
The mountains were blocked by heavy snow on the left and right, and the long road was difficult to travel. Xie Junzhuo stayed in the village for a few more days, and it would not be too late to send the child away.
The little ones and the big ones were rescued, and the trivia to be dealt with one after another.
Xie Junzhuo put the child's soul on her little paper man to warm up for two days, and the child looked much more solid.Xie Junzhuo calculated that he could let the children meet Sister Shouhou, so he found time to go to Sister Shouhou's house.
She didn't go at the right time, and Shouhou's sister fell asleep, holding the straw figure she made in her arms, and a pair of adult's shoes and a pair of children's tiger-toed shoes were placed beside the bed.The fire in the house went out again, and the water in the bowl was covered with a thin layer of ice.
Xie Junzhuo cast a spell, and the fire in the stove was lit up again, somewhat warm.
Shouhou's elder sister couldn't accept the reality for a while and lost her mind. Xie Junzhuo stood by her bed for a while and fed her a Qingxin pill.The dead cannot be resurrected, but the living will continue to move forward.
Because Sister Shouhou couldn't wake up for a while, Xie Junzhuo greeted the neighbors and went back to Niu Dazhuang's house first.She came here to save people with good intentions, but no one thought that something would happen in just a few hours.
Slender Monkey's sister slept until it was dark, and the neighbors made dinner and came over to give her some. The crazy person didn't spread the food this time, and hugged the straw man to call him a child. After eating, I thanked my neighbors.
The neighbor thought it was strange, but because she still kept silent, she didn't care too much at the moment, and went back after saying a few words of relief as usual.Xie Junzhuo said before that if someone woke up, he would tell her, but the neighbor thought it would be in the middle of the night, and it was not convenient to call the little girl out, so he wanted to wait until the daytime to talk.
However, Shouhou's elder sister didn't wait until daytime. In the dead of night, she took advantage of the tinder Xie Junzhuo left for her to keep warm, and lit her house with a fire.In the raging fire, she hugged the straw man and sang a lullaby, welcoming death with a smile on her face.
It was too late for the villagers to wake up, the house was covered with snow and the house was not too burned, but the flammable things in the house were piled up by Slim Monkey's sister, and she sat inside, as if she had a cremation for herself.The fire started from within, and it was too late for them to put it out.
Xie Junzhuo got up when she heard the movement, and when she rushed over, everyone had already carried Sister Shouhou's body out.The child hiding on the little paper man seemed to realize something, and ran out of the paper man. Xie Junzhuo wanted to catch him but failed.
The children did not run towards the corpse, but ran into the charred house.After a while, the child came out again, holding an adult by the hand.
Thin Monkey's elder sister saw Xie Junzhuo, she paused, nodded at Xie Junzhuo, turned around and left with the child, and quickly disappeared into the night.
Xie Junzhuo froze in place. She let Shouhou Sister regain her sobriety, hoping that she would cheer up and live.But it was this bit of kindness that pulled her out of the illusion and once again faced the cruel reality.Madness can allow her to see the child, but reality cannot.
The last bit of hope was gone, and she fell into the abyss of despair.
"Did I do something wrong?" Xie Junzhuo muttered to himself, not listening to what the people behind him said, and left alone.The redemption she thought was Shouhou's life-threatening talisman, and the hell in her eyes was a hotbed for others.
Sister Shouhou's funeral was very simple, Xie Junzhuo didn't show up, she sat on the threshold of Niu Dazhuang's house all day.No one blamed her for this incident, after all, it had nothing to do with her, but the neighbor who delivered the food blamed herself very much, thinking that it was her own carelessness that caused this disaster.
Xie Junzhuo didn't say that Shouhou's sister had regained consciousness. That was a secret that would be hidden in Xie Junzhuo's heart forever.
It was New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye, and Xie Junzhuo was still at Niu Dazhuang's house. She repaired a barrier for the village and arranged one at Niu Dazhuang's house by the way.The joy of the New Year dilutes the depression of the village in the past few days. Everyone made a meal of hundreds of dishes to thank Xie Junzhuo, and asked Xie Junzhuo to taste every dish.
Xie Junzhuo didn't shirk, and simply ate a little.She hasn't celebrated the New Year for many years, and this day means nothing to her.But the villagers didn't think so. They lived a lively life, and every household posted festive couplets.
As usual at night, Xie Junzhuo went to do as the Romans did, so he sat on the threshold with Niu Dazhuang.Niu Dazhuang hung a lantern at the door of his house, and there was a blessing written by Xie Junzhuo on it.The lamp is always bright, which is a good omen for the next year.
"Girl, this is for you." Niu Dazhuang took out a small red envelope made of red cloth from his body, and put it in Xie Junzhuo's palm with some embarrassment.
Xie Junzhuo touched it casually, and knew that it was money. She was a little surprised. Niu Dazhuang said with a silly smile: "I am your elder in terms of age. If you can't go back to celebrate the New Year for our village, you must have missed the New Year's money from Master." .I'll give you another one to celebrate the new year and suppress evil spirits. The money is not much, so let's make it auspicious."
The folks do have the custom of giving lucky money to children, but this is not popular in Taoism.
Xie Junzhuo laughed in a low voice while holding the red envelope. She looked at the rare stars in the sky, and her thoughts drifted away.
Niu Dazhuang's words aroused her thoughts, and she was also a little curious. If she was in Sanqingzong now, would Jiang Yuehan give her the lucky money?
"Master, I miss you."
