all enemies

Chapter 42

Shi Chen rested for a while, then washed Bai Qiong, who was almost withered, wiped it with a dry towel and put it on the wooden platform next to the door to bask in the sun.

Rong Buyu patted Bai Qiong's head casually with downcast eyes, and said, "We'll stop here for a quarter of an hour before we start our journey."

Shi Chen: "So fast?"

Rong Buyu casually pointed to the surroundings: "There are already living corpses coming here, if you wait a little longer, you may not be able to leave."

Shi Chen remembered the hideous appearance of the living corpse, and immediately said: "Hurry up, hurry up, let's go, don't rest, let's go now."

Everyone rested for a while in the long pavilion before boarding the carriage and officially setting off.

Going down from Yunguicheng Mountain, there is an official road that has been abandoned for many years. Both sides are full of dead trees and boulders, spreading all the way to the distance.

Shi Chen and Bougainvillea were all lying on the wooden platform because they were bumped too much just now, and Bai Qiong also imitated them lying on their stomachs, their tails and small wings waving slightly.

Zhui Lu was full of sleep, and was holding a cup to drink water. Seeing their listless appearance, he wondered: "I really didn't feel the bumps, are you lying to me?"

The two of them and the beast were too lazy to talk to him, so they turned over at the same time, ignoring this darling who was protected by heaven.

Rong Buyu was sitting beside him drinking, his legs were dangling gently outside the carriage, looking at the withered trees retreating rapidly in the distance, he didn't know what came to his mind, he tilted his head and said, "Chasing the deer."

Zhui Lu looked up: "Huh?"

Rong Buyu took the last sip of wine, stretched out his hand, and took out a flower as if by magic, blinked his eyes, and said, "Do you want to buy flowers?"

Zhui Lu took it over and looked at it casually, then asked doubtfully, "Sell it to me?"

Rong Buyu said: "That's natural, don't you want to take it for nothing?"

Zhui Lu immediately handed it back and said, "Then I won't buy it. If you sell me the leaves, I might consider buying some."

Rong Buyu squinted at him, and forced to buy and sell: "You took it all, how can there be any reason to return it? Stop talking nonsense and take the money."

Shi Chen at the side whispered to Bougainvillea, "Uncle Rong probably has gone out of wine again."

Apart from having no alcohol, he was too lazy to deceive people with such nonsense.

Zhulu looked at him in shock, his eyes were dazed, and seeing his unrelenting appearance, he had no choice but to say dryly: "Then...then how do you sell it?"

Shi Chen hurriedly said, "One branch, three..."

Rong Buyu said indifferently: "Three hundred black jade stones."

Shi Chen: "..."

Shi Chen and Bougainvillea looked at each other in shock, and began to suspect that his Uncle Rong was crazy, and this murderer was too fierce, wouldn't he be afraid of being hacked to death by the Dao of Heaven?

The two looked at Zhuilu in horror, planning to see how the two fools would deal with it.

Unexpectedly, Zhuilu just said "oh", stood up and jumped on the wooden platform, and the black jade stuffed in his sleeves, collar, and girdle fell down and scattered all over the floor.

Zhulu said: "This should be enough, right? I don't know how to count."

Rong Buyu glanced at him, and said to Shi Chen, "Come on, you count."

Shi Chen was shocked to see Rong Buyu's appearance as a profiteer without the slightest guilty conscience, and was stunned for a long time.

Rong Buyu gave a "tsk" and said, "Erqi, you come."

Bougainvillea originally felt that this move was really shameless, but Rong Buyu just glanced at him, his mind was dazed, and he immediately felt that it was too cheap to sell that branch of flowers for three hundred jade.

Bougainvillea ran over and counted jade stones in a small basket without complaint.

The deer was still jumping around, and the jade fell to the ground again.

Rong Buyu finally frowned, said: "You carry so many jade stones on your body, don't they all sink?"

Zhuilu said vaguely: "Fortunately, I still lost a lot. Humans seem to like this thing very much. I can buy them to do things for me. It's pretty good."

Rong Buyu: "..."

Shichen helped Bougainvillea pick up jade, and asked in confusion, "Have you traveled to many places over the years?"

Zhulu said: "Yes, I have run from south to north, from west to east, and I have seen everyone."

Shi Chen asked curiously, "Have you seen Gui Yan?"

Competition suddenly choked: "This..."

Shi Chen: "Has anyone seen it?"

Zhulu struggled and said: "This... there are exceptions to everything."

Shi Chen looked at him with disgust.

Zhulu kicked the jade stone under him to the side, sat cross-legged, and said: "Before the end of the day, ghosts are not very popular, and some people even call it 'Evil ghosts hate it', each of them has its own personality. A man with a distorted mind can be called insane, and his wind rating is even worse than that of a magic cultivator who fell into the Tao because of his heart demon."

Rong Buyu sat with his back to them, unconsciously fiddled with the beads on his wrist, stared into the distance absently, and remained silent.

Zhulu was still chattering: "Everyone thinks that all beings in the Three Realms are equal, but that's just your human beings. Demon cultivators and demon cultivators are born to live in one corner, unlike you human monks who can wander around the four seas and five cities."

Shi Chen had never heard of this saying: "How do you say it?"

Zhulu randomly inserted the flowers in his hair, picked up the jade stones next to him and placed them twice, pointed to one of them and said, "Most of the demon cultivators are in the enchantment forest outside Yuzhou City...we don't care much about names. , because there is a big pagoda tree at the exit of the enchantment, so they are all called pagoda forest."

Shi Chen thought to himself that you don't care about names too much.

"As for Ghosts and Moxiu, it's in the north of Liuzhou City..." Zhulu pointed to the other one, "Oh, you may not know, it was called Wuhua City before, and it was full of ghosts."

Surrounded by dense forests outside Wuhua City, [-]% of the ghosts from the Three Realms are in it.

And Rong Buyu grew up in Wuhua since he was a child, and because Rong Ling protected him so well, he didn't realize until he was a teenager that the people around him were the ghosts he hated the most.

Outside the Wuhua City, there is another layer of enchantment. In the middle of the two layers of the city boundary is the living corpse that Rong Ling has been urging human monks to become ghosts for several years.

When Rong Ling said to let Ji Fenghuan and others leave the city, he also meant to throw them into the group of living corpses, that's why they were so frightened when they were young.

Zhulu stacked two jade stones together, pointed to the other scattered jade stones, and said, "Here, the rest of the place is all you human monks, do you think it's fair?"

Shi Chen was stunned for a moment before he said, "Then...then you can come out too."

Zhulu twitched his eyebrows, and said: "People are greedy, and the whole body of a monster can be used as a spiritual treasure. You let us come out in a big way? I am afraid that nine lives are not enough to squander."

Shi Chen thought about it too: "What about ghosts? They are no different from people, so they shouldn't be coveted by others, right?"

Zhui Lu smiled and said, "Yes, but they covet the lives of others."

Shi Chen: "..."

"Although ghosts have a human body, they are essentially the same as evil ghosts. They can do things like devour people and flesh. Do you think human monks will let them come out and do anything wrong?"

The roar of the living corpses could be faintly heard around, and Zhulu said, "Did you hear that?"

Shi Chen listened carefully: "A living corpse?"

Zhulu said: "Those living corpses were originally human monks. Because the magic repair tower in Wuhua City exploded, the ghosts got tired of their spiritual power and wandered into the Three Realms out of control, which made them become like this."

Shi Chen had never heard of this before, and looked at him in horror.

Zhulu thought for a while, and then said: "The spiritual power of the magic repair tower in Wuhua City is very strange. If the corroded monks can survive, their lives will be safe. If they can't survive, they can only be reduced to living corpses. .”

Bougainvillea kept her head down and counted the jades, as if she wasn't listening, but the hand holding the edge of the bamboo basket was trembling slightly.

"I heard a human monk say that there is another kind of people," Zhulu said, "After being corroded by the devil's energy, a small number of people will directly become ghosts."

Shi Chen was taken aback: "Straight, directly turned into a ghost?"

Zhulu said: "This kind of possibility is very rare. There may be only one out of ten million people. These are also hearsay. Anyway, I haven't seen one in these years. You just listen to it."

You Xiang heard his brows frowned closer and closer, glanced at Rong Buyu who seemed to have no reaction, and said casually: "Okay, don't talk about such things, be careful that you won't be able to sleep at night due to fright."

Shi Chen was quite interested in these things, and said, "I won't be unable to sleep, I sleep with Uncle Rong at night, and I'm not afraid of anything."

Yuxiang frowned.

Shi Chen struggled: "Then what? Where are all those ghosts now?"

"Back then, Wuhua City was turned into a sea of ​​flames, and those ghosts who were tired of death were almost the same. Only a small part escaped, and now I don't know where to hide." Zhulu shrugged, "Anyway, the monks blamed the end of the day. As for those ghosts, if they are caught, they will probably die miserably, so they don't dare to show up at will."

You Xiang couldn't listen anymore, stepped forward and kicked lightly on the wooden platform, and whispered: "Stop talking."

The competition is unclear, so: "What's the matter?"

You Xiang pursed his lips, looked at the motionless Rong Buyu, and said in a low voice: "Rong Buyu hates ghosts the most, don't mention this in front of him."

Zhulu took a look at Rong Buyu, then shut up, and said silently: Sorry, I don't know.

You Xiang booed at him: "Just don't mention it again."

Rong Buyu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly moved at this moment. He stood up and walked towards the next room without looking at anyone else, and said, "I'll take a nap first. I'll buy some wine."

Bougainvillea was taken aback for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Is this jade still counting?"

Rong Buyu did not look back, and said: "Count, count enough to five hundred, if not enough, break off the antlers of the deer to make up the number."

Zhulu immediately covered his head and said innocently, "Didn't you just say three hundred?"

Rong Buyu said: "You said something you shouldn't have said, I'll raise the price on the ground."

Chasing the deer: "..."

I've never seen a price increase so confidently.

The deer had no choice but to stand up and start jumping.

Rong Buyu went to bed while talking, found a random room and slammed the door in, as if he was so angry.

Shi Chen glanced at it, and said in a naive way, "That...that's not my room."

Bougainvillea's gloomy mood just now dissipated, and he forcibly tensed up, and said lightly: "It's nothing, it's okay for Rong Rong and I to squeeze together."

Shi Chen glanced at him: "Quickly count you, lest he get up and beat you up."

Bougainvillea snorted at him, and continued to bend down to count jade stones.

After a while, Bougainvillea counted a pile of jade and finally made up [-] pieces. The bamboo basket couldn't be filled, so he had to find a cloth bag full of it, and ran to knock on the door.

Shi Chen stopped him: "Hey! You don't want to die, don't mess with him when he's sleeping!"

Bougainvillea hesitated for a moment, so he had to rest his mind.

He put the bag on the table, and was about to eat the dried fish when Zhu Lu, who was lying on the wooden platform at the threshold, suddenly said, "There are people ahead."

Bougainvillea and Shichen immediately ran to the door curtain in front of the carriage and looked ahead.

Sure enough, a woman dressed in red and covered with a veil was standing in front of her, with a light wave of her hand, as if calling for help.

Zhui Lu looked around, but found no other people, and exchanged a glance with You Xiang: "You guys know each other?"

You Xiang said: "How is it possible, it's better to be careful."

The official road was not wide, the woman stood in the middle and blocked the road, Yu Xiang had no choice but to drive the carriage and stop ten steps away.

You Xiang told Zhui Lu to be optimistic about the two children, jumped out of the carriage alone, and tentatively said to the man, "Your Excellency, do you need help with something?"

The woman in red kept her head down, and she seemed to be carrying a long piano covered in black cloth behind her back. The white gauze on her face fluttered with the wind, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.

Yu Xiang was taken aback.

I saw the woman raised her head slightly, her voice was chillingly cold.

"Dare to ask..." She paused every word, "Have you seen my piano?"

Youxiang: "..."

You Xiang tentatively said: "You...are you carrying a qin on your back?"

There are jade tassels hanging on the black cloth, which may be the jade pendant of Changqin.

The man looked at You Xiang ruthlessly, and just when You Xiang thought she was wrong, she suddenly spoke.

"Oh yes, yes."

Youxiang: "..."
