The mountain ghost blows out the lights

At first, Zhao Xu couldn't accept Yan Jinping's request at all.

"Are you crazy?" His eyes widened, and he took two steps back as if fleeing, "I didn't say clearly enough just now? That fairy is not normal! Even with him, they are not normal! You two still want to Go there, are you afraid of being taken as a 'living sacrifice' and offered to the gods?!"

Anyway, he himself had made up his mind to leave Tunan City a long time ago, and he didn't care about the rules and regulations at this time. He said out loud the slander and speculation he had been secretly all along, and he felt an indescribable joy.

He had long wanted to scold the god who didn't slip away like this, but now he had already spoken, so he just continued to shout.

Deceitful thing, careless trash, extortionate bastard!

... On the other hand, the other believers who lived in the same city as him, although Zhao Xu didn't have a good relationship with them, after all, they got along with each other day and night, and they had complaints, but in the end they held back and didn't speak too much.

After waiting for a while after scolding, he found that there was no so-called "God's Punishment". Zhao Xu snorted again and said angrily, "Damn it, they really lied to me!"

Every sentence is filled with righteous indignation and resounds loudly.

Shen Lianxing: "..."

Yan Jinping: "..."

It can be seen that the child is really holding back.

Shen Lianxing waited for him to slow down for a while, and then tentatively said: "Little brother, how are you thinking?"

"No, no, no."

Zhao Xu relieved his anger, calmed down, and shook his head several times in a row, still showing obvious resistance: "I've never seen him before, and I don't even know if that fairy is real, so I'll take you to find it, where can I find it?" go?"

"Don't think about it. Get out of the city as soon as you can, otherwise it will be too late."

The young boy consciously worried about these two gods and men, but he didn't realize that the other party didn't appreciate it at all.

Yan Jinping insisted: "It's okay, we have our own way. Just please take us outside your 'Jingshen Hall', don't worry about other things."

He also assured him: "We will never let them know that you brought us here. How about this, if you want to wait for this matter, you can go to a shop called 'Linlang Pavilion' in Yanjing City to find me. I It's the boss there, he's pretty well-known in the city, and he can find you a good place... Do you think this will work?"

Although there is suspicion of coercion and lure, it is not very authentic, but the current situation is special, so it is impossible to use such small means.It is they who invite others to do things, and of course they have to get something in return.

Zhao Xu hesitated for a while.

On the one hand, he was facing Yan Jinping, who still did not forget to bring his innocuous and provocative little spell when he spoke; It won't take long to leave immediately after bringing the person there.

Left and right are delayed, not less than half an hour.

Besides... In fact, Zhao Xu was also quite curious about these two mysterious visitors.

Aside from Yan Jinping's promise to him, he is a little boy in the [-]th or [-]th year, when his curiosity is strong, and he doesn't consider many things so thoroughly.

Just like he decided to leave Tunan City, he decided to do so, and he did it, and there was no special reason to say.

"That's fine." He convinced himself in his heart, finally nodded and said, "I'll take you there, but only outside—the people in the city may have discovered that I didn't go to the worship hall, and I was about to Come out to find me, I have to avoid it."

"Don't worry." Yan Jinping patted Zhao Xu on the shoulder, put a leaf between his fingers to cover him up just in case, and said calmly, "When that happens...they won't be able to take care of you. .”

……

The Jingshen Hall is in the deepest part of Tunan City, next to the mountain.

It is said that this design is to "get closer to the mountain god", so that he can receive the incense of believers more clearly.

Yan Jinping, who had been a real mountain god, scoffed at this, and said simply and rudely: "Fart."

Those who become gods with faith should also use faith as their source of strength.As for 'faith' itself, the most important thing is to be sincere.Believers sincerely respect the gods, and no matter how far apart they are, they will not be disturbed by any external objects.

The form is not important, the so-called "reasonable not in loudness" is almost the same reason.

Zhao Xu led the two of them out of an alley, and pointed to the front: "It's there, do you see it?"

He didn't need to point it out specifically, the two of them could see it too.

In front of them was a very distinctive building.

Tunan City is extremely impoverished. Life used to be tight, but now everyone prays to gods and worships Buddha all day long. They don’t have any production, and they are even poorer and poorer. Along the way, the buildings in the whole city are all dilapidated, and the roof is broken. Renxiu looks like an abandoned city.

But this 'Jingshen Hall'...

The golden roof and vermilion walls, carved beams and painted buildings, how to get rich and honor, the scale is very large, just like the shrine outside.

Yan Jinping: "..."

No wonder everyone said they had no money, all of Nancheng's money was spent in such a ghostly place.

It is meaningless to waste people and waste money, and it is no wonder that you are not poor if you continue to waste like this endlessly.

Why didn't I find out before, are these people so stupid?

"Brother hard work." Shen Lianxing nodded, took something from his arms and handed it to Zhao Xu, "Take this to Yanjing City, and find the shopkeeper after you enter Linlang Pavilion, then show this to her, and say If you are looking for 'Eight Treasures', she will understand."

What was handed over was nothing big, just a thin piece of paper.

Yan Jinping took a look at the side, and found that what he handed Zhao Xu was a flower card - this thing is currently only circulated among the goblins, it is a very special sign, and at the same time it is not too expensive to give to the young man It is indeed more thoughtful to cause disaster.

Zhao Xu was dubious, and took the flower card: "Okay, then I... shall I go first?"

Seeing that the two of them finally didn't intend to stop him this time, the boy took two steps back, just like when he came, and quickly disappeared into the shadows between the buildings.

Shen Lianxing looked at the Jingshen Hall where there was no movement, and said softly, "Are we going in like this?"

The doors and windows of the Jingshen Hall were closed tightly, revealing a faint light from the inside to the outside. Through the window paper, you could vaguely see many shadows standing behind, but all of them were motionless and did not make any sound, as if they were filled with sculptures.

The hall was eerily quiet.

"I always feel that something is wrong." Shen Lianxing observed the situation and frowned, "The kid said that they are here to discuss things today. How can we discuss it so that it can be discussed like this?"

The two of them could hear the sound of slow and deep breathing, and they could be sure that there were indeed living people inside, and it wasn't someone who was playing tricks and putting on fakes.

But a whole city of living people gathered in this house, since they wanted to discuss it, why didn't they even make a sound?What are they doing?

"...I don't know." Even Yan Jinping was not sure what the situation was.

He has seen a lot of gods and ghosts, not to mention those goblins with straight eyebrows.Even fierce ghosts with cruel temperaments mostly like to directly harm people, and rarely play tricks in a mysterious way.

This is a group of living creatures in front of them, making it like this...it makes people feel weird and panic.

Yan Jinping frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Look first, don't worry."

Shen Lianxing: "Is Tunan here?"

After all, Tunan was considered a mountain god, and he used Yan Jinping's godhead. If he really appeared near them, Yan Jinping would definitely react.

"Not here." Yan Jinping shook his head and sneered, "Besides, he has never been here before."

This wealthy 'Jingshentang' is just an empty shell, no matter what the people inside are doing, in short, this place has never really been blessed by the gods, and there has never been a quilt, no matter how gorgeous and beautiful it looks, it is useless.

Shen Lianxing wondered: "Then why did he let them do this?"

There must be a purpose, it can't be idle, tossing believers for fun, right?

"Who knows." Yan Jinping now has a lot of opinions on Tunan, and he is not hesitant to make various speculations about him, "Maybe he is crazy, and he is happy to see people working in vain, on purpose."

Judging from Tu Nan's original madness, Yan Jinping would not find it strange what he did.

"That's right." Shen Lianxing didn't know Tunan well, so he couldn't express his opinion, so he pondered, "Since it's confirmed that Tunan is not here, how do you plan to find him?"

The goal of their trip was Tunan, and no matter how weird other people's behavior was, it had nothing to do with them.

Yan Jinping had spoken so positively to Zhao Xu before, so he must have already had an idea.

Yan Jinping nodded and said, "Tu Nan used my...godhead at the beginning."

He didn't explain it to Shen Lianxing in such detail. He talked about the part about digging out the heart, but he didn't say about the bloody and violent part about swallowing the heart alive, so he was vague at this moment: "Stealing is stealing. After all, it's someone else's thing. It'll be that easy. That's the part that used to be mine, and just make a little connection and I'll be able to pull him out of the den along the way."

As for that connection...

Yan Jinping raised his chin, and gestured to Shen Lianxing for the quiet worship hall ahead: "They can help a little bit."

Although I don't know what the Tunan people are doing in the worship hall, but the construction of this building itself is an attitude.It represents the Tunan people's call to them to enshrine the mountain god. Although they have never received a response, a one-way connection is also a connection. As long as Tunan is enshrined in the shrine, and he is cast here, he must be found.

After Yan Jinping briefly explained, he pulled out Ke Gu and slashed his wrist without changing his face.

The bone was sharp, and he was afraid that the wound would heal too quickly. This stroke was extremely deep, and blood gushed out immediately. Before it fell to the ground, it turned into a blood line and spread forward.

It points to the exact opposite direction of the Jingshen Hall.

"It's done." Yan Jinping put away the hard bone, shook his hands as if nothing had happened, and said relaxedly, "Follow this line, and you will definitely find him."

For him and Tu Nan, blood tracing is the easiest and most accurate way to find people. Yan Jinping has already thought of this spell since he knew the existence of Jingshentang.The successful display now is also within his expectations.

"At this point, I'm afraid he doesn't want to see me." The line of blood escaped into the air and stretched thinly. Yan Jinping fiddled with it, and moved the corners of his mouth with a subtle, hard-to-distinguish emotion. .

"It's not up to him."

He took two steps forward, but he didn't see Shen Lianxing following him. He turned around in confusion, but Shen Lianxing was still standing there, looking at him with a complicated expression.

Yan Jinping: "...what's wrong?"

Why are you looking at yourself like this all of a sudden?

Shen Lianxing sighed, took two quick steps to keep up, frowned and said, "You——you can't use such a way to hurt your body next time?"

"What's this?" Yan Jinping finally knew what this man was struggling with, couldn't help laughing, and stretched out his hand to Shen Lianxing, "It's okay, look, it's already healed."

Yan Jinping's physique is different from that of ordinary people. It is composed of flames as a whole, but it is just a small hole in the flames. It is not difficult to heal.

The wound hasn't fully healed yet, but the bleeding has stopped, and the edges are a little pale white, and it's also growing healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Boss Yan himself didn't grow that string at all. For him, this kind of minor injury was almost as if he didn't have it. He didn't take it to heart at all.

After thinking about it, I added a sentence: "...It doesn't hurt, really."

fake.

Pain is pain, where is the difference between high and low levels?

But he has such a character that he doesn't take himself seriously. Shen Lianxing understood Boss Yan's bad habit early in the morning, and after a long silence, he could only frown and say, "But my heart hurts."

These words are so sore to the front teeth, Mr. Shen has been at ease for half of his life, except for some special moments, when has he ever been so hypocritical?

But it's true.

And Shen Lianxing had wanted to say it a long time ago, while the two of them were on their way, he kept staring at Yan Jinping, he had to ask for an answer.

It's not that you can't cast spells in this way, but next time, can you not take harming yourself as a matter of course?

Yan Jinping... Yan Jinping finally understood.

"I know." So he was silent for a while, looked away, and whispered.

"Next time...it won't be like this."

The author says:

Be nice to yourself, Boss Yan.

----

I don't know if everyone has noticed that Yan Jinping looks good, but in fact he doesn't care much about 'himself'.For so many years, he has been used to solving everything alone. For him, as long as he can get things done, it's just a little injury or a loss—it doesn't matter.

Especially not afraid of pain, because I have long been used to it.

Since no one would help him or feel sorry for him, he never felt it was a problem himself.

Why did I post it after midnight again, and I agreed to change it every day, but my work and rest are really not regular...

So on the 6th there may be a double change (orz may not be changed until after 0:[-])

Anyway, it must be finished, don't worry (.
