"Lord Nie, Your Majesty's edict is here. If you fail to pay the taxes on time, it is a crime of deceiving the emperor. Rather than suffering yourself, it is better to let the people pay all the taxes that should be paid."

Inside the yamen, the attitude of the officers and soldiers from the capital was very domineering. Nie Yun didn't dare to offend him, so he could only carefully test to see if there was any room for returning to the world. "Not long ago, the emperor issued an order to exempt the local taxes. Do you know that there will be more for the emperor?"

"You and I can guess what your majesty is thinking." The officers and soldiers said coldly, but then weighed the silver that Nie Yun secretly sent up, and his expression eased a little, "it's okay to tell you, this is not what your majesty meant. , but Archmage Pudu Cihang advised His Majesty."

"The magic power of the great master is boundless. Your Majesty will practice together with you. Seeing how young you are day after day, if Mr. Nie pays taxes according to what the great master said, maybe you can become younger and younger."

Jiang Yan listened to the words of the officers and soldiers from behind the screen, and he didn't need to go to the capital to meet that Pudu Cihang in person to know that it must be deceiving people.

There is still some time before the day of paying taxes, but Nie Yun has already begun to worry. This year's sunshine is just right, and the harvest of the land looks good. I thought that there would be enough to feed the people without paying taxes this year.

Unexpectedly, a so-called "Purdue Cihang" popped up suddenly, who really saved sentient beings, so why not save these hungry sentient beings?

"Father, you don't have to worry. From my point of view, those officers and soldiers and even the Purdue Cihang are not human beings, but demons."

Nie Yun was surprised. He has lived for more than 50 years, and he has encountered more strange things in the past year than he encountered in the previous half of his life, but at this moment he took it for granted, "Then what should I do? Hang is really a monster, the emperor trusts him, won't he do more crimes and harm the people in the future?"

"Father who doesn't know, demons can't achieve greatness after all they do evil." Jiang Yan comforted.

But the more calm Jiang Yan behaved, the more flustered Nie Yun became, "Yan'er, you don't mean to deal with that Pudu Cihang, do you? He must be no ordinary person to gain the emperor's trust. You can't go to die."

Jiang Yan didn't think there was anything great about Pudu Cihang's trust from the emperor, but it was just some spells to confuse people, "Don't worry, Dad, I won't act rashly."

Nie Yun looked at Jiang Yan carefully. He didn't want his son to be imprisoned, but he also didn't want the people to continue to impose harsh taxes because of Pudu Cihang's words. In the end, he could only sigh silently, and now he will take a step forward One step away.

Those officers and soldiers stayed in the yamen for several days, and let Nie Yun treat them with delicious food and drinks. After leaving contentedly, Jiang Yan left a letter for Nie Yun and followed him. Du Cihang's ability is great, but if he told Nie Yun directly, he would definitely be worried about his safety and would not let him go.

Seeing that the officers and soldiers began to take off their human skins one by one after leaving the town, it turned out that these officers and soldiers were centipede spirits, but they emptied the flesh and blood of the officers and soldiers and went in to control the skins by themselves, covering them with human skin. No wonder he only felt the evil spirit And did not see their real body.

The centipede spirits left, leaving only empty skins on the ground. You don't need to think about it. When they want to use it to walk in the world again, there will definitely be people whose flesh and blood have been hollowed out, and only the skins are left for them to use. .

"Why don't you go and kill them?"

Suddenly a charming voice came from next to his ear, and Jiang Yan realized that Hu Mei had appeared by his side at some point.

"Why are you here?" Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen went to their hometown to worship their parents together, and they left with Hu Mei, saying that they wanted to find her original owner.

It was only then that Hu Mei remembered what was going on, "Ning Caichen was arrested and imprisoned. Those people said he was a murder suspect. Xiaoqian was going to rescue him, so I came to you."

"Why is Ning Caichen considered a murder suspect?" Jiang Yan was puzzled, but after hearing Hu Mei's explanation, he only felt it was both ridiculous and sad.

"It could be because of something, isn't it because he looks a bit like the person on the yamen bulletin, but he doesn't look like that at all. Those officers and soldiers arrest people when they see them, not to mention that Xiaoqian is so beautiful. She If her husband is arrested, she will become a weak woman."

Jiang Yan remembered that when he was in Guobei County, the streets were full of portraits of suspects, and the rewards on them were very generous, and some people made a living out of this. But after those people caught up with him, they found that he looked different from the person in the portrait, so they turned around and continued to search.

I didn't expect to escape in Guobei County, and I haven't escaped now.

"Xiaoqian has cultivation on her body, so I think she can rescue Ning Caichen. I'm going to follow those centipede spirits to find their lair." Xiaoqian will definitely not let Ning Caichen go to die, and give Hu Mei a spell, " You take this, if Xiaoqian really can't handle it anymore and burn this talisman, I will go there."

Hu Mei took the talisman, held it in her hand and looked at it carefully, but she didn't see anything unusual, "You trust me so much, aren't you afraid that I'll just leave and ignore Xiaoqian's business?"

"If you want to go, you can go, please go."

Without talking to Hu Mei, Jiang Yan burned those human skins and continued to follow the group of centipedes.

At the same time, in the prison, Xiaoqian sneaked in and was about to leave with Ning Caichen. Ning Caichen was not a murderer in the first place, but was arrested by misunderstanding. If it doesn't work out, then they can only go astray.

Seeing that the person in the same cell as Ning Caichen fell asleep, Xiaoqian patted Ning Caichen quietly, and saw that he opened his eyes and was about to lead him out of the cell with spells, but Ning Caichen stopped him and said, "Xiaoqian, you Is it okay to just take me out like this? Will it cause trouble for my father-in-law?"

"Don't worry, they think you are a murder suspect. You are someone else's name now, not Ning Caichen at all. Besides, no one knows that I am Nie Xiaoqian. What I am doing now has nothing to do with my father."

Since the name Ning Caichen caught was not Ning Caichen but the name of the murderer, and the Yamen refused to accept her drumming, then this matter has nothing to do with her father.

Ning Caichen was right when he thought about it, so he let Xiaoqian lead him through the wall and out of the prison.

Xiaoqian has just practiced recently, and the only spells she can use are invisibility and wall penetration. Flying with the wind and flying with the sword is impossible, let alone flying with a person.

So after the two left the city, they could only rely on their horses to escape. They didn't stop to rest until dawn and the horses were tired from running.

Seeing Ning Caichen's serious face, Xiaoqian comforted her, "Caichen, you don't have to think so much, we'll be fine when we escape a little further."

"I know, those yamen guards just arrested me casually so that they could go to work. Naturally, they didn't dare to say anything if they caught me wrong. I was thinking that if I just came out like this, would they make it difficult for me to be in the same cell? The gentleman in there."

After spending two days together, it can be seen from his words and deeds that the gentleman is very talented and thoughtful, and he should not have been locked in a cell, let alone be implicated by him.

"Now we can't take care of that much anymore. How can we take care of others when we are too busy to take care of ourselves?" Xiaoqian took Ning Caichen's hand. She knew that Ning Caichen was soft-hearted and easy to pity others, but the most important thing now is to take care of others. Own.

If it was a monster who caught Ning Caichen this time, she could try her best to save her, and she could even ask her elder brother to help, but in fact it was not the monster who caught Ning Caichen but the government servants. It's not something that can be solved by killing one or two yamen servants.

Ning Caichen sighed silently. He also knew that there was no way to solve this kind of thing. He only hoped that the jailers would not implicate others because of his escape.

At this moment, Ning Caichen felt a pain in his calf, and looked over with a sound of oops, only to see that Hu Mei came to them at some time, and hit his leg with her fist just now.

Xiaoqian picked up Hu Mei, and then remembered that she had completely ignored Hu Mei after Ning Caichen was arrested, and she felt guilty, "I'm sorry I forgot about you, you are really a spiritual fox, you actually Take the initiative to follow us."

"Is she really a fox? She looks so much like a dog, and she can smell it to find someone. Could it be that she is a dog and not a fox at all?"

Ning Caichen asked suspiciously, this hit Hu Mei's anger point, she is a vixen, she actually said that she is a stupid animal like a dog, and she is not looking for people by smell, she is Find people by magic.

Jumping directly from Xiaoqian onto Ning Caichen with force, he punched him with both front paws. Ning Caichen was a little unaware of the sudden explosive punch, and was knocked to the ground unexpectedly.

"Caichen." Xiaoqian rushed to help him, but the dew was very heavy in the morning, and Ning Caichen's clothes were stained with a lot of dew and mud. Seeing him so embarrassed, Hu Mei felt relieved.

"Xiaoqian, look at her, why does she like to hit people so much?"

Xiaoqian looked at Ning Caichen, then at Hu Mei's satisfied face, and couldn't help smiling, "Okay, it's a fox and you insist on calling it a dog, of course she will be angry, and I told you that Hu Mei has If you still don’t believe in spirituality, let’s write back.”

Ning Caichen really believed it this time, the ass squatting just now really hurt him, and he didn't dare to provoke this little ancestor anymore.

After daybreak, the two continued on with a fox.

The sun rose higher and higher, stretching the shadow of the two riding together on the road outside the city.

During this journey, Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen are destined to be restless.

Because Xiaoqian's act of bringing Ning Caichen directly out of the prison is called "prison robbery" after all, so the two of them have been keeping a low profile along the way, and try not to go to crowded places. It became the place where they stayed the most at night.

They are no strangers to temples. Lanruo Temple is the place where their love began. The environment is a little dirty, but it is still livable.

But when they came outside this ruined temple, Xiaoqian keenly sensed that something was wrong. She used to be a ghost, and the ghostly aura emanating from this ruined temple was obvious.

"What's wrong with Xiaoqian?" Ning Caichen asked puzzled seeing Xiaoqian not leaving.

"There is something in this temple." Xiaoqian blocked Ning Caichen behind her. She could feel a ghost in the temple, but she didn't feel a ghost, and she didn't know what it was.

Hu Mei was also very curious. Before Xiaoqian, she jumped off the basket and went inside. She had practiced in the mountains for hundreds of years before, and it was not interesting to be outside during this time.

"Hu Mei is back."

Xiaoqian called out, but Hu Mei disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the two of them could only go in.

After entering the temple, Xiaoqian immediately understood the situation inside. The reason why there is a ghost here is because someone once died in it. The ghost left and only one corpse remained and became a murderous corpse.

There are also murderous corpses in Lanruo Temple. The murderous corpses have no consciousness and only know to repeat the killings in their lifetime. Xiahou Jian, who was once lured by her and lost his life, became a murderous corpse after killing too much in his lifetime. In the end, it was wiped out by Yan Chixia.

Hu Mei was lying on the table, looking at the murderous corpse slowly approaching in the distance, clumsy and ugly, even this kind of monster has the nerve to occupy this temple?

He yawned a little bored, threw a spell at random, and the corpse immediately stood still.

After Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen came in, what they saw was Hu Mei and the corpse looking at each other, the corpse was acting strangely still, and Hu Mei looked lazy.

Xiaoqian took out the dagger that Jiang Yan gave her. It is said that this dagger can destroy all demons and evil spirits. As expected, the dagger just unsheathed, it emitted a burst of golden light, and on the body of the murderous corpse and where the golden light touched, it turned into a puddle of thick water. The stench is incomparable.

Hu Mei quickly covered her mouth and nose with her paws, turned around and ran out, she would not have come in if she knew it smelled so bad.

Seeing that the corpse seemed to be about to move, Xiaoqian jumped up without hesitation, and directly stabbed the dagger into the sky cap of the corpse. Hearing a whimper from the corpse, Xiaoqian struggled to resist, but no matter how hard he struggled, It is inevitable that he will gradually turn into thick water.

"Oh, you really got rid of this vicious corpse, the heroine is such a powerful spell, is she also a cultivator?"

At this time, a voice came, and the two of them looked at a man, dressed in strong clothes, he looked young, walked in and clasped his fists and said, "Xia Zhiqiu Yiye, I have been entangled with this murderous corpse for several days, can you two?" It's pretty powerful to remove."

"No, no, I didn't get rid of this vicious corpse, it was my wife, and my wife is very powerful." Ning Caichen quickly explained that he really didn't help just now, and he couldn't bear the false name.

Zhiqiu Yiye was surprised. It was surprising to see a scholar and a woman get rid of the murderous corpse, but she did not expect that the main contribution was this woman, "This lady is really a heroine, I admire you."

This murderous corpse is huge, and he can't guarantee that he will kill it once. It is a good thing that someone got rid of it now.

The murderous corpses were disposed of, but the stench of the puddle of thick water was still there. Fortunately, the temple was large enough to allow them to rest somewhere else for the night.

"Where's Hu Mei? Did she run out again?" After lighting a fire and eating something, Ning Caichen found that Hu Mei had disappeared again.

"There's no need to look for her. She'll definitely be back soon." Xiaoqian said indifferently. Hu Mei separated from them several times along the way, and she could come back by herself, so there's no need to worry.

The reason why Hu Mei hadn't come back at this time was because she saw a person who looked exactly like Xiaoqian.

She didn't know that there were two people who looked so much alike. If it wasn't for the fact that the person not far away had no demonic aura, she would have suspected that the person cultivated the human form according to Xiaoqian's appearance.

Seeing the group of people getting closer and closer, Hu Mei turned her head and ran back to the temple.

"Sister, there seems to be a fox there. Could it be a vixen? This temple looks dilapidated and there are foxes living here?"

Qingfeng followed her younger sister Yuechi's gaze, and indeed saw a fox running in. She wasn't worried about any vixen, the most important thing was to save her father now, "Since there is a place to live here, let's rest here for one night and continue on our way tomorrow. "

At the same time, Jiang Yan also came to Shili Pavilion, only a few miles away from the temple.

"I really didn't expect that the monsters have already reached the court." Yan Chixia felt resentful in her heart. The court was occupied by monsters. Will the other places be okay?

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether it's a monster or a human who occupies the court. Didn't you leave because of ulterior motives? Really speaking, there is no difference between those who chase fame and wealth and those monsters."

Jiang Yan took a sip of the wine, then handed the wine bag to Yan Chixia.

Ever since he followed the group of little centipede spirits, he saw that Pudu Cihang was also a huge centipede spirit, pretending to be a great mage, he had eaten up many officials in the court and turned them into skins body, and then let his little centipede spirits enter those bodies, pretending to be court officials to deceive the world.

Jiang Yan looked at Yan Chixia. After finding out the true face of that Pudu Cihang, he contacted Yan Chixia, thinking that it would be better for him to deal with the matters that need to be dealt with after the demon subjugation.

After all, getting rid of demons is not the most difficult thing, the most difficult thing is to get rid of the follow-up after the centipede spirit. Most of the civil and military officials died at once. This is a major blow to a court. If it is not done well, the dynasty may be destroyed .

Although Yan Chixia is eager to get rid of demons, she also knows that the dynasty has collapsed, and it is the common people who suffer from the war, so she proposes to protect those ministers who have not been killed. After that, the court will reuse these people while selecting talents. There is room for maneuver.

And what they came here to save was a man named Fu Tianchou, who was framed and imprisoned, and was going to the capital to be executed. Soon the group of people would pass by Shiliting, and they took advantage of the opportunity to save people.

[-]. The night passed, and the escort team had not yet arrived, but another group of people came in ambush near Shiliting, and it seemed that they also wanted to rob the prison car.

"Xiaoqian?" Yan Chixia glanced, and saw that the woman in the grass in the grass looked exactly like Xiaoqian.
