After the Xuanmen boss retired

"Father, all the tributes are here, you can see if you are satisfied."

Xie Yu, with his head covered in messy hair, tremblingly made an offering to his Tiandao father.

Fu Mingxing and the little ostrich also waited quietly, nervously waiting for Tiandao's father's reaction.

After a while, the incense lit on the altar suddenly went straight up.

A gust of breeze blew across the table, and a large table full of assorted tributes lost its aura in the blink of an eye.

The two of them tensed their backs, Xie Yu and the little ostrich huddled towards Fu Mingxing, the tall man, and dared not make a sound next to him.

After Tiandao's father most likely had used up the tribute, Xie Yu hurriedly chanted something to ask Tiandao's father for forgiveness.

"Xie Yu," the little ostrich said pleasantly after Xie Yu finished reading, "Your hair is hanging down."

I saw that Xie Yu's originally full head of fried hair finally fell back to its original position, and the black and soft hair was scattered obediently behind him, and the ends of his hair fluttered when the breeze passed.

Xie Yu stroked his hair in surprise, tears streaming down his face, it can be regarded as recovery.

He has made plans to become a golden lion king in the future, but fortunately Tiandao's father still loves him.

Fu Mingxing also heaved a sigh of relief, took out a comb to comb his hair, tied it with a headband, and said, "Be careful with your words and deeds next time."

Xie Yu: "You're right."

Dad just made him blow up this time, so what if he makes him bald next time?

He didn't want to convert to Buddhism at all.

……

After coaxing Tiandao's father, Xie Yu and the others stopped wasting time and went straight to the city of crossing the river.

And the ghost king of the crossing city has been waiting for many days, and he has not waited for anyone to come to his door. He is very unhappy, thinking that the monk probably gave up to persuade him, and he waited for so long in vain.

"Your Majesty, are you waiting?" the ghost under his command asked respectfully as he watched him get up and go back to the bedroom.

Ghost King: "Don't wait, I'm wasting my time, I'm going to sleep, don't bother me."

Ghost Liao hurriedly said: "Yes."

Gui Liao thought to himself, the monk who accepted the task really has no backbone, and he just gave up like this, so that they didn't have a chance to watch it, and they would have kidnapped him if they had known about it.

Now the king has lost his interest, and it's useless to tie people up. It's really a mistake.

……

Because the city of crossing the river is in the realm of mortals, after entering the realm of the Zheng Dynasty, Xie Yu and the others did not fly with their swords, but changed to riding horses and headed towards the city of crossing the river.

The City of Difficulties is to the west of the Zheng Dynasty. Since it became a ghost city, mortals no longer approach the City of Difficulties.

"Are you going to cross the city?" The people in the caravan who happened to be with them on the road were surprised when they heard it, and immediately persuaded: "you can't go, only the dead can go to the city of crossing, and the living can't go there. , that's a ghost town!"

Xie Yu pretended not to know, and asked them about the news of Duan City.

Most of what the caravan said is the same as what the storyteller said, but there are also some differences, for example——

"Although the city of crossing is a ghost city, and the living can't come back, but because of the city of crossing, there have been fewer wars in the west for hundreds of years. Everyone said that General Wu was a hero when he was alive. , guarding the land of the Zheng Dynasty even after death."

"People who entered the city by mistake, if you have never done anything bad in your life, if you kneel down and beg General Wu, he will let you out. But if you have done something wrong, you will not be able to get out."

After hearing what the people in the caravan said, Xie Yu and Fu Mingxing were thoughtful.

Xie Yu asked: "You call the ghost king General Wu, do you agree with his actions?"

The leader of the caravan sighed and said: "When the enemy army surrounded Qingya City, General Wu's mercenaries were like gods, but he didn't give the enemy a chance to break through. When everyone was trapped in Qingya City and there was a shortage of food, General Wu was the first to take Those who left their homes to give all their food to the soldiers and common people in the city were besieged until they could only eat human flesh. General Wu’s wife and children also lost their lives. As long as the people in the city persisted for three more days and the reinforcements arrived, they would be able to get out of trouble. It’s a pity that Wu The general was betrayed by a villain, and all his efforts fell short. Faced with this situation, who can not become a demon."

Xie Yu and the others did not speak for a long time.

The little ostrich sat on Xie Yu's shoulder and said, "Wu Qingxi killed his wife and children?"

Xie Yu: "I'm afraid it is."

Little ostrich: "He is so scary, what's the point of defending the city like this."

Xie Yu didn't speak. No one knows what the real situation was at that time. The rumors from the outside world have been passed down hundreds of years later, and the authenticity needs to be investigated.

Assuming these rumors are true, it means that Wu Qingxi is a cold-hearted and ruthless person, and it is definitely not easy to persuade such a person.And judging from the failure of those who persuaded him over the years, the rumors are half true, if not not all true.

This ghost king, Wu Qingxi, is a bit difficult to deal with.

……

The people in the caravan persuaded Xie Yu and Fu Mingxing for a long time, but they couldn't do it after seeing that they insisted on crossing the city.

"You two, I don't know why you insist on going to the City of Difficulties. For the sake of getting to know each other, I will tell you one thing in private. When you encounter difficulties, you can take refuge in the Miaoyin Pavilion of the City of Difficulties. But whether you can survive depends on your good fortune." The caravan leader said.

Xie Yu asked him, "How did the leader know about it?"

The leader of the caravan said: "I am the descendant of the man who survived the city of crossing the catastrophe. He is my great-grandfather. My family has been in business for generations. The great-grandfather led a caravan for the first time. To cross the city, I met General Wu with the help of Miaoyin Pavilion. After passing the test of General Wu, I walked out of the city alive and sent ghost generals to kill all the mountain bandits who chased and killed my great-grandfather. My great-grandfather always said General Wu is actually a good man, he is grateful for General Wu's kindness, and enshrined General Wu's tablet at home."

Xie Yu was a little surprised, no wonder he felt something when he saw the leader of the caravan. Considering that he was related to his mission to complete the city, it turned out that this wonderful opportunity was here.

Xie Yu: "Brother, do you know what is so special about this Miaoyin Pavilion?"

The leader of the caravan said: "According to great-grandfather, Miaoyin Pavilion was built by General Wu's wife."

Xie Yu pinched his fingers and made the final calculation, and understood a little bit.

He said to the leader of the caravan: "Thank you for your generous reminder today, brother. As a reward, I will also tell you one thing. You shot three sons and two daughters, but because of the hit, you lost two sons and one daughter. Now the rest One son and one daughter are also plagued by diseases, and you have searched all over the world for medical treatment but found nothing, and you are worrying about this.”

The caravan leader was surprised: "You, how do you know."

Xie Yu smiled: "Brother, if you want to save your son and daughter, you should find a godfather and mother for them. The godfather and mother are not someone else, but two from the temple in your town. Remember After recognizing them as godfathers and mothers, you need to prepare all the offerings on festivals and offer them sincerely. You have to change the names of your sons and daughters too, um... how about this, I will take it for you."

Xie Yu immediately took out a pen and paper, wrote down the names of the caravan leader's son and daughter, and handed the paper to him.

The caravan leader took it and looked at the name on it in shock. Apart from changing one word in the name, nothing else changed. But how did this person know the name of his son and daughter?

The leader of the caravan knew that he had met an expert, so he quickly saluted and thanked him solemnly.

Xie Yu helped him up: "You don't need to thank me, you told us that Miaoyin Pavilion helped us, and I will help you too, we don't owe each other."

The leader of the caravan wanted to say something more, but Xie Yu and Fu Mingxing had already left.

The leader of the caravan was even more shocked when he saw that they left without a sound and disappeared in the blink of an eye. They were obviously not mortals.

The leader of the caravan didn't dare to delay any longer, and after parting from Xie Yu and the others, he hurried back home with the caravan.

As soon as I got home, I heard that the remaining son and daughter had been ill again recently. The doctor came several times and said that this time was difficult. Speaking of other things, I asked someone to invite the gentleman in the town to calculate the auspicious time and prepare a gift, saying that the two gods in the temple should be recognized by a son and a daughter as godfather and mother.

The others were very surprised, thinking that he had gone to the doctor in a hurry, and some people advised him not to act rashly.

But the leader of the caravan was very persistent, and when the auspicious time came, he rushed to the temple with his pale and dying son and daughter, held a grand recognition ceremony, and recognized the two gods in the temple as godfather and godmother .

The gods enshrined in this temple in their town are husband and wife. They are a pair of miracle doctors who saved the lives of the town residents hundreds of years ago. The temple is dedicated to every festival.

The temple is indeed somewhat spiritual. Since the townspeople enshrined these two, the residents of the town have never encountered serious natural disasters or serious illnesses, so the incense in the temple has always been very strong.

The leader of the caravan recognized the two as godfathers and mothers for a son and a daughter, and changed their names on the spot. The pale-faced children really improved.

A son and a daughter who had been in a coma woke up, and their eyes were no longer cloudy.

The leader of the caravan looked at the children who had woken up, couldn't help crying, and immediately asked the children to kowtow to the godfather and mother after their emotions stabilized.

The two children were also very well-behaved, so they stood up and kowtowed to be godfather and mother on the spot.

The others were shocked when they saw this. They thought that the caravan leader's rush to the doctor was really effective, so they couldn't help but ask him who gave him advice to come up with such a method.

The leader of the caravan said, "It's an expert I met on the road."

It's a pity that he only knows Gao Ren's surname Xie, but doesn't know Gao Ren's name, and he doesn't know Gao Ren's origin, otherwise the leader of the caravan wants to imitate his great-grandfather to worship Gao Ren.

As time passed, the children of the caravan leader gradually recovered their health. Looking at the lively children, the caravan leader let go of the boulder in his heart, and his gratitude to Xie Yu grew day by day.
