Aotian the domesticated miniature dragon

At dawn, the groom knocked on the door and asked if he was leaving.

Lu Qianshan tidied up his clothes and hair, turned the sleeping little dragon cub back into a palm treasure and put it in his arms, then wrapped all the clothes he bought in the package, and opened the door.

The groom's surname is Wang, he is taciturn, honest and honest, and looks extremely inconspicuous.However, Lu Qianshan also knew that Shen Ye could keep this groom by his side, which proved that this person could not be as inconspicuous as his appearance and temperament.

For example, if he is a groom now, he looks like an honest groom.But he is also one of Shen Ye's subordinates, a close minister of the emperor, and a member of the prince's special guard.

The groom took the package that Lu Qianshan was carrying. He lived next door to Lu Qianshan yesterday, and seemed to hear the prince's voice.But now Mr. Lu is alone in the room, and the prince has not been seen.But he also knew not to ask what he shouldn't ask, but he looked at Lu Qianshan with a strange look in his eyes.

What is the relationship between the crown prince and this little brother?

Of course it's about dolls.

Lu Qianshan calmly ignored the groom's gaze, and Shi Shiran got into the car.The carriage ran towards Wancheng, because it was already spring, and the surrounding scenery was pretty good. The understated greenery shrouded the land like fog, and the birds that had been hungry for the winter landed lightly on the branches, pecking at the sweet young leaves.Farmers are already busy in the field, digging up the thawed land with hoes, digging out the dark soil.

A faint spiritual energy rolled over this land, and the breath was full of carefree refreshment.

Walking until noon, there are lush forests on both sides of the official road.The groom stopped the car on the side of the road and boiled some hot water to cook the noodles.There was the sound of horseshoes in the distance, and after a while, dust came flying. It was the group of men who lived together in the town.

"Hey!" Someone reined in his horse, "Brother, is this the way to go to Wancheng?"

The groom hummed, and just rightly dodged back, expressing that he was honest and scared.

The group of people seemed to be hungry too, and they all got off their horses one after another, and borrowed the fire to roast the food they brought from the inn.

The leader looked at the carriage. Although the carriage was low-key, it could still be seen that it was made of good materials, and it was very spacious. "Where are you going?" he asked.

The groom muttered, "Wancheng, visit relatives."

"Going to Wancheng too? What a coincidence." The man rolled the meat sauce with pancakes and ate it. "Is there a lady in the car?"

The groom shook his head and said, "No, it's my young master."

"Jingui's young master." The guys laughed.In their eyes, men should ride horses, and only delicate women can ride cars, and they dare not show their faces in this barren mountain.

The groom smiled honestly, filled a bowl of noodles and handed it to the car, "Master, it's time to eat."

The people in the car reached out to take the bowl, but the people outside could only see a pair of white hands like nephrite jade, which seemed transparent against the imprint of the rough pottery bowl.He is indeed a delicate young master.

Zhong Yulin was sitting on the small table of the carriage, full of vigor, and when he woke up, he found that he was naked and on the road again, and he slept so fast last night, it seemed that he had been tampered with.The most irritating thing is that after he expressed his dissatisfaction, a certain little brother just closed his eyes and rested his mind, and didn't even help him put on his clothes! !

Am I not cute?Xiaolong Cub was thinking wildly while dressing himself, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

The noodles were cut off by the chopsticks and sent to his mouth. Zhong Yulin stood up and picked up the bowl, stretching his neck to eat the noodles.Even if you lose your temper, you have to eat and drink enough. Besides, people who are hungry and angry are fools.After feeding the cubs, Lu Qianshan ate up his noodles and knocked on the car window twice.

The groom reached in and took the bowl away, and asked, "Master, do you want to go now?"

"Let's go." Lu Qianshan looked at the enlarged black marks on the map, feeling a little uneasy.

Seeing them leaving, the group of men quickly devoured the cakes in their hands, drank a few sips of water, got on their horses one after another, and galloped around the carriage towards Wancheng.

"I'm still angry..." The voice of the carriage perfectly covered Xiaolong Cub's voice. He tugged at Lu Qianshan's finger and said softly, "Aren't you coaxing me?"

Lu Qianshan felt it was funny and helpless, "Prince, how old are you this year?"

"I'm only that old." Xiaolong Cub's belly bulged, his big eyes sparkled, "I didn't want to go to bed so early last night, how could you treat me like this."

Lu Qianshan looked at Xiaolong Cub's swollen cheeks, and couldn't help stretching out his hands to pinch them.

With a pop, the little dragon cub leaked air.

He laughed and said, "What did I do to you, huh? Why don't you tell me what you did to me?"

Cub Xiaolong covered his face, and said, "It's not my fault, it's because Shanshan looks too close."

"Excessive words." Lu Qianshan coiled him in his hand, and gently smoothed his hair with his fingers, "As the prince, are you just so messy?"

Zhong Yulin was discouraged. He leaned on Lu Qianshan's palm and said, "You don't know how messy those ministers are. It's just annoying. Every time I talk to them, I want to drag them down and behead them. Being a prince is so difficult. It is even more difficult to be an emperor, my father often loses his temper when they are angry. It is too difficult to be a wise emperor, look at those foolish emperors, although they are scolded, they can do whatever they want."

"What about you?" Lu Qianshan asked.

Zhong Yulin sat blankly for a while, and said: "I want to be a wise king. Life and death are just a word for the tens of thousands of people in the Great Zhao Kingdom. I don't want them to die. Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat, and the people are the same. I want to They have enough to eat and drink, so that there are fewer corrupt officials. They don’t ask for nothing, they only want to be greedy but they can also think about the people. I want to be a good emperor, and I also want to marry a good queen..."

Lu Qianshan squeezed his mouth expressionlessly.

Xiaolong Cub hesitated for a long time before breaking free, rubbing his face and looking at Lu Qianshan dissatisfied, said: "You are the only one in the world who can treat me like this."

Lu Qianshan snorted coldly, and pushed him to the ground.

Zhong Yulin was furious, and tried to stand up and stand up, "How can you treat your future husband like this? Husband is going to be angry, why don't you hurry up and kiss me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage suddenly started to jolt, almost knocking him off the table.

Lu Qianshan sneered, and took the frightened little guy into his arms and clasped his hands together.

"I'm going to beat him..." Zhong Yulin pushed his face into Lu Qianshan's sleeve, sniffing the faint fragrance, the anger in his heart had long been extinguished.

The sun gradually turned westward, and the walls of Wancheng were looming under the shadow of the distant mountain tops. The black air was like a huge hood, covering Wancheng densely.

The groom said: "Master, there is a ruined temple in front of you. If you miss it, you may miss Sutou. This area is all mountain roads, and there are no villages any further."

It is said to be a broken temple, but it is actually a small dilapidated Taoist temple.The one enshrined in the Taoist temple turned out to be Yue Lao.Looking at the mottled mud tires on the altar, Lu Qianshan thought to himself that it would be ruined to enshrine Yuelao here, who the hell would go all the way to seek a marriage?

Old Yue sat there kindly, the red cloth on his body was old and white, covered with dust.The incense burner on the altar was overturned, and the incense ash fell to the ground and mixed with the dust.

Lu Qianshan raised the incense burner and waved his hand, and the dust on the altar table disappeared.

Just as the groom wanted to praise this young master Lu for his kindness, he heard young master Lu say: "It's just a table like this, let's eat on it."

groom:……

Come on, what you say is what it is.

The groom went out to collect firewood to prepare dinner. Lu Qianshan walked out of the entrance of the gymnasium and looked towards Wancheng. A group of crows fell on a locust tree next to the Taoist temple, bringing a faint smell.

He sniffled and frowned—it was the stench of corpses.

The crow represents the unknown, and a crow with a corpse is simply the unknown of the unknown.Lu Qianshan snapped his fingers at the crow, and a foot-long crow croaked mournfully, turning into black mist and rushing towards Wancheng.

What happened in Wancheng? ?

The firewood was crackling, and the groom sat beside the carriage outside the door, leaving the fire to Lu Qianshan.Lu Qianshan poked the fire with a wooden stick, and suddenly looked up at the statue of Yuelao.Yue Lao lowered his eyes and looked ahead, the ink on his eyeballs was old and stained, and he looked dull.But just now Lu Qianshan clearly felt that Yue Lao was watching him.

Weird?

He picked up a small stone on the ground and flicked it with his fingers, and the small stone hit the moon statue's chin with a bang.The clay statue wobbled, and half of its chin fell off, making the old Yue look more and more strange.

"Master?" The groom looked over.

"It's okay." Lu Qianshan signaled him to go back to rest, and then drew a talisman directly on the statue of Yue Lao.No matter what kind of ghost you are, you can't move now, just stay there!

The little dragon cub got out of Lu Qianshan's arms and poked him.Lu Qianshan reluctantly took the oil bottle to a corner, and after he finished his convenience, he took a soft paper to wipe the gadget's ass.

"I want to change back when I arrive in Wancheng." Zhong Yulin put on his pants and slipped back into Lu Qianshan's arms, "It's too inconvenient."

Lu Qianshan hummed and returned to the fire, and looked at the old moon statue again.He always felt that the statue looked different this time, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be turned up.

It was late at night, the groom guarded the door and closed his eyes to rest, while Lu Qianshan sat cross-legged on the blanket beside the fire, thinking about the affairs of Wancheng.Big fierce, but no danger.But I don't know if this is safe because the fierce will not kill people, or because I have a high cultivation level and can directly suppress it.

Wancheng with corpse aura and demon seeds...

The groom suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were shining brightly, "Master, someone is here."

Lu Qianshan hummed, he knew that not only had someone come, but the person who came seemed to be traveling with him.It was the first time I met a cultivator in this world, and I couldn't help being a little curious.

"Benefactor, can we also go in and have a rest?" An old Taoist priest ran over with three young Taoist priests, "It's windy, I'm afraid it's going to rain."

Lu Qianshan looked outside, the already dark sky was getting darker, the dark clouds covered the sky, and the trees outside were whistling in the wind with water vapor.Suddenly there was a thunderstorm, and the first spring rain fell, causing dust to rise from the ground.

"Come in," he said.

The groom stepped aside to give way, and the Taoist priests saluted and hurried in.The night in early spring was still cold, and the youngest Taoist priest looked seventeen or eighteen years old, his little face was blue from the cold.Several people saluted the old moon statue, the old Taoist sat on the futon beside the altar, but the young Taoist approached the fire shivering, sniffling.

Lu Qianshan glanced at them, and found that they were all disciples who had not yet established a foundation. He said, "Come and sit by the fire, to keep you warm."

The old Taoist chanted the dharma name, and immediately pulled the futon up, "Thank you benefactor, it's really too cold today. Benefactor is staying here overnight, where do you want to go?"

Lu Qianshan signaled the groom to boil some hot water for the Taoist priests, and he asked, "Go to Wancheng."

"Wancheng?" The old Taoist's voice was a few degrees higher, "The poor Taoist persuaded the benefactor, or don't go to Wancheng, that Wancheng is a bit weird now."

"Oh?" Lu Qianshan asked, "What's so weird?"

The old Taoist sighed and said: "The ancestor calculated that Wancheng will be in trouble, so he ordered the poor Taoist to bring his disciples. Now that Wancheng is shrouded in a layer of death from a distance, it is worrying."

Master?Lu Qianshan said with a smile: "Dare to ask which mountain gate the chief came from?"

The old Taoist said: "The Qingshan Temple is hundreds of miles away from here. The name of the poor Taoist is Yunshanzi." After speaking, he shook his whisk and read the sentence name.

Lu Qianshan nodded. He hadn't heard of Qingshan Taoist temple before, so it was probably a new Taoist temple, not worth mentioning.

Yun Shanzi was stunned for a moment, this Qingshan Temple was quite famous, and there were many Taoists, but the benefactor in front of him seemed to have never heard of it.He thought for a while, and then said: "Uncle Poor Dao is in the Imperial City Qintian Prison."

Now the little brother on the opposite side doesn't even have oh.

The groom brought hot water and some pancakes to the poor Taoist priests.Yun Shanzi and his disciples took the hot water pancakes and thanked them again and again.

The groom retreated quietly and continued to lean against the door.

While eating pancakes, Yun Shanzi looked at the little brother in front of him. This little brother is really good-looking. Although he is dressed in ordinary clothes, his temperament cannot be deceived.And for some reason, he seemed to see a ray of immortality in this little brother...

Is it also a colleague?But... I haven't seen anyone practicing cultivation.

Just as he was doubting, he saw that little brother took out a yellow talisman from his sleeve and waved it in the air.The yellow talisman brush was ignited, and the runes appeared in the air, wanting to disperse in all directions.

"This..." Yun Shanzi opened his mouth wide in surprise, "May I ask which mountain gate your Excellency came from?"

Lu Qianshan said: "Loose cultivators are not worth mentioning."

It's not worth mentioning, this technique is three points more powerful than his master's ancestor!

"Fellow Daoist, what was that talisman just now?" He couldn't even eat the pancakes.

Lu Qianshan said: "Recruiting ghosts." He was silent for a moment, then smiled, "There are no ghosts around?"

Yun Shanzi was startled at first by the word Zhaogui, and then by the word no ghost. "Ghostless? How is it possible? Could it be that talisman... I'm sorry, I offended you, but how could there be no ghost?"

Not everyone will enter the cycle of hell after death, especially in this barren mountain, there are many wild ghosts floating around, so how can there be no ghosts?

Lu Qianshan lowered his eyes and said, "The ghosts are probably all in Wancheng."

Yun Shanzi stood up abruptly and said, "Oops, is it possible that someone wants to turn Wancheng into a ghost city?? Now, I have to talk to Master." After speaking, he hurriedly found a corner, took out a talisman and lit it , "Master, there are no ghosts in the mountains, I'm afraid they are all in Wancheng!"

There was another thunderclap, and the rumbling thunder rolled in the clouds.The trees in the forest were cut by the wind and rain, shaking like monsters with teeth and claws.

The little Taoist priests nervously held the swords around their waists, but the youngest one was still devouring food, apparently starving.

Yun Shanzi passed the letter and ran back again, saluted Lu Qianshan, and said, "Daoist friend, just now I don't know Mount Tai, so please forgive me. I dare to ask you to go to Wancheng, but it is also to solve the problem of Wancheng. The disaster of the city?"

Lu Qianshan said: "Didn't your ancestor tell you? There are demons in Wancheng, and now I don't know what happened to cause the spread of demons. Seeing that the demons are soaring, half of the people in the city may be infected with demons. "

"Human devil? Demon seed?" Yun Shanzi was at a loss.

Lu Qianshan smiled, "Go, and pass on a message to your ancestor. Now Wancheng is not the only city and county infected with the demon seed. Let's see if your ancestor can solve it."

Yun Shanzi froze for a moment, then went to the corner to burn the talisman paper.

It rained heavily for half the night, and the next day the sky was as blue as a piece of bright glass, which set off the black air-shrouded Wancheng like an ugly blemish on the glass.

The groom drove the carriage slowly with a straight face, Young Master Lu sat in the carriage safely, and a few Taoist priests trotted behind the carriage.He didn't understand where this Young Master Lu came from, wasn't he just a farmer's brother?Commander Shen just took a look at it, it seems that the presence of a prince on the way is considered a skillful brother, but why did he provoke a group of Taoist priests? ?

Fellow? ?What the hell is that?

Wancheng's true face gradually appeared in front of everyone, Lu Qianshan asked the groom to stop the car far away, and said, "You are right here, don't enter the city."

The groom paused, glanced at the panting Taoist priests, and said, "Master, I'm afraid this city is not peaceful."

Lu Qianshan smiled and said, "It's because it's not peaceful that you're not allowed to go in. Be good, wait here and don't go anywhere. This is for your self-defense. If something goes wrong, you can just hide in the car, you know?"

The groom took a purse, which contained a piece of talisman paper.He has fought and killed people with real swords and guns for more than ten years, and this is the first time he heard that he used talisman paper for self-defense.

"But Commander Shen said..."

"Commander Shen told you to listen to me all the way." Lu Qianshan looked at him, "Listen to me, you know?"

The groom suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure, he twitched the corners of his mouth and nodded.

A few people raised their feet and walked towards Wancheng. The closer they got, the stronger the stench of corpses became, but the city gate looked bustling like it used to be.After all, this is a big city, and there are quite a few hawkers who come and go to do business every day, not to mention those who deliver water, vegetables, and various things to those wealthy families.Carriages meandered for a long time and were queuing up to enter the city.

There is also a tea shed on the side of the city gate. People waiting to enter the city are too cold to sneak into the tea shed to buy a bowl of hot tea to warm their bodies.

If it weren't for seeing the black demonic corpse, this Wancheng would be like other cities.

A group of crows flitted across the city, making rough and ugly calls.

"Fellow Daoist..." Yun Shanzi's voice was a little unsteady, "This black air is too heavy, I don't know what fellow Daoist is thinking now?"

Lu Qianshan said: "Do you have one or two good magic weapons?"

Yun Shanzi froze all over, quickly covered his robe and said with a sneer: "Where is there any magic weapon, it's just a poor Taoist priest."

"If you don't have a weapon, you can't tell how strong the black energy is based on your cultivation base. If you don't believe me, you can ask your disciple." Lu Qianshan laughed.

Yun Shanzi sneered and said: "Yes, there is a life-saving magic weapon, which was given by the master." Now he is full of doubts, where did this young master Lu come from?Why does it look more powerful than his master?His master has been cultivating for decades, and he is about to build a foundation!

The long line at the gate of the city squirmed, but Lu Qianshan was not in a hurry, but went into the tea shed to ask for tea.

The proprietress looked at him, then at the Taoist priests sitting at the same table with him, and said with a coquettish smile, "Oh, I don't know what happened recently, there have been several groups of Taoist priests in the city. This pretty little brother Could it be that he is also a Taoist?"

Lu Qianshan looked at the proprietress with a full smile, and said, "If it weren't for your lack of blood, I'm afraid I would have accepted you long ago."

The proprietress turned pale, and said with a dry smile: "Young master, what are you talking about, I don't understand. The slaves are only here to earn money for tea, and they don't accept anything..."

Yun Shanzi was shocked when he heard that, he stared at the proprietress in front of him, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like an ordinary person.

The proprietress felt uncomfortable being stared at by the Taoist priest, and said: "I still have some vegetarian fruits in my house. I made them fresh this morning. The Taoist priests have worked hard all the way here. Let's try my handicrafts." After speaking, she hurriedly turned to the back kitchen, It took a long time before two plates of vegetarian fruits came out.

Someone next to him laughed and said, "What's the hard work? Who doesn't work hard? The proprietress is afraid that the little Taoist priest looks exquisite and lovely? Why don't I see you for something to eat when I come here on weekdays?"

The proprietress gave him an angry look and said, "What do you know?"

Lu Qianshan took a vegetarian fruit, but it was just a snack with some sugar added to the noodles and fried in vegetarian oil.He took a bite and put it back on the plate, saying, "How long has the proprietress been here?"

The proprietress didn't dare to leave either, so she could only laugh along with her and said, "It's been a few years."

Lu Qianshan asked, "What happened in this city recently?"

The proprietress was stunned for a moment, then sat next to Lu Qianshan, and said in a low voice, "To tell you the truth, there are... many colleagues here in this city." After she finished speaking, she smiled awkwardly, "I always thought it was a city What those Taoists want to do, they just come in and never come out, so the servants don't know what happened in the city."

"You don't live in the city?" the old Taoist asked in surprise.

The lady proprietress waved her hand and said, "I can't afford to live here. The housing price in Wancheng is too expensive. A small remote courtyard costs hundreds of taels of silver. Now the slave's family is just a breadwinner, and they live in a place not more than ten miles away from here." In Pangjia Village, it is convenient to come here every day, and you don’t have to wait for the city gate to open if you come early.”

Lu Qianshan almost wanted to laugh, a hundred-year-old ghost said that he couldn't afford a house in the city, it was too miserable.

The proprietress also seemed to feel that she was in a miserable situation, and said with a sneer, "I can't help it. It's too expensive to raise a few cubs. In addition to eating and drinking, the daily tea money also needs to read to the cubs, ouch, what about that?" Reading is simply burning money, it’s okay if I say I can’t read, since I can’t read, can’t I earn money?”

Lu Qianshan said: "It's always good to do good deeds."

The proprietress nodded nonchalantly.

"Then besides your peers, what about the others?"

The proprietress thought for a while and said, "I didn't pay attention to those unfamiliar faces, but those who come and go frequently are still the same as before, and there is no change."

Lu Qianshan nodded, looking down in thought.

After waiting for more than half an hour, seeing that the sun was about to climb to the top, the convoy at the gate finished checking.He pinched a piece of broken silver and gave it to the proprietress, who happily took the silver and thanked her repeatedly.

Lu Qianshan walked slowly towards the city. The defender glanced at his face, his eyes obviously brightened, and then looked at the Taoist priest behind him, and couldn't help frowning.

"Visiting relatives," Lu Qianshan stuffed a piece of silver into the guard, "Zhou Tong's house in Fourteenth Lane."

The defenders took the money, and then shaved Lu Qianshan's face again, saying: "My little brother looks good, brother, let me tell you for the sake of your understanding, the city is not peaceful recently. Stay at home obediently, if you run out and get caught... no matter how much my brother hurts you, I can't help you." After finishing speaking, he laughed a few times.

Lu Qianshan saluted, and said, "Thank you, Lord Jun, for your advice." After speaking, he looked up at the dark city, "This city is indeed too uneven..."
