Lingxian Zhenjun

Chapter 161

"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, if you don't eat them, you will finish them as a teacher." The crazy old man waved his hand in front of the apprentice a few times, "What's so interesting."

The old man followed Chen Yuan's gaze, turned his head and glanced, and saw a man and a woman at the next table. The man was eating vegetables while talking. The handkerchief wiped the corners of her mouth.

Seemingly noticing Chen Yuan's gaze, the man smiled kindly and continued eating.

"Could it be that you ran into the group of people raising corpses again?"

Seeing this strange scene, Chen Yuan recalled that when she went to a town near Linjiang County, she also encountered the incident of transporting coffins for mortuary corpses. Since she stepped into the golden elixir, the power of incense has been successful, and she can tell at a glance that this woman is not a zombie. .

"Maybe there is some strange disease."

Probably thinking about it, turned back, continued to eat with the master, then packed up, and went to the reserved room, went upstairs together, and the couple who also stayed here, seeing the man carrying his wife on his back and struggling, the woman The person still didn't feel it, and stared straight ahead, like a wooden man, carrying his back into the room.

After going through so much, Chen Yuan is not as reckless as she was before. For the time being, she put aside the matter of the couple next door, called the guy in the shop to boil a bucket of hot water, coaxed the master to take off the tattered clothes, and helped the old man to wash for a whole day. There were two big buckets of water, and the tired man kept complaining, but fortunately, Chen Yuan tipped a dozen coins, and his sad face turned into a smile, and he moved the bucket and left.

"Master, are you comfortable?" Chen Yuan shook her hands, and the water stains faded away by themselves.

The crazy old man sniffed his armpits, "It's tasteless...not good..."

"Hey..."

At this time, a familiar voice sounded in the room. Li Bai was lying on the table, leaning on the side of his head, shaking the wine gourd hanging from his fingertips, asking Chen Yuan to drink for him.

"Brother Taibai, when did you come in?"

Li Bai raised his eyelids, and pointed to the slightly open door: "It's not closed. There's good wine here, fill the gourd... 噫咱嚱."

"Can you smell this?" Chen Yuan took the wine gourd from his hand with a smile, and turned it into a normal size in his hand, "I'll give you a few shots. Master, you rest first, I'll go downstairs."

On the bed, the crazy old man turned over, sandwiched the quilt, and waved his hand sleepily.

Squeak!

The door was opened, and when Chen Yuan came out, she saw the store guy coming out of the next door cursing, his face looked a little bad, when he met Chen Yuan, he still squeezed out a smile and asked him what he needed.

"Four taels of the best wine in your house."

"Is it in the gourd pot? That's okay, the guest officer will sit downstairs for a while, and the younger one will go right away."

The wine vats were arranged in a row behind the counter, and the guy lifted the soil cover wrapped in a cloth towel, scooped out a tube with a bamboo tube and slowly poured it into the gourd.

Chen Yuan looked at his back, and was a little curious about why he had that look just now. After all, in the job of a guy, no matter how unruly the customer is, he still has to smile.

As soon as the question came out, the guy didn't look back, and sighed while drinking.

"It's not a small complaint. It's just that the couple are too tortured. They asked the young one to go in after a while. They went back and forth seven or eight times just now."

"Oh? What are you doing in there?"

"Guest officer, don't blame the little one for gossiping in the back." The guy packed the drink, weighed it, stuffed the gourd, took the money for the drink, and continued: "The man is so thin that he can't move his wife. Going to bed needs help to move; after bathing and putting on clothes, I also need to ask the little one to help move. Humans are struggling."

"So that's the case, maybe that woman's body is really heavy."

Some people look thin and weak, but they are really heavy. This is also a common thing. Chen Yuan didn't rely on ghosts and monsters for everything, not to mention that the man in the couple spoke well and was easy-going, not like a hidden evil.

After taking back the gourd, Chen Yuan didn't chat any more, and went back to the room to give the wine to Li Bai. The wooden sculpture smelled the wine, and said again: "Wow!"

He jumped off the round table with a bang, opened the door and walked out.

"Brother Taibai, pay attention to your feet. After watching the night, remember to return to the car after reciting poems."

Without turning his head, Li Bai waved his hand behind Chen Yuan's back, and walked to the stairs in a rather cool manner, and then... his feet stepped on the air, and he fell down, and there were several bang bangs in succession.

"Tell you to be careful."

Chen Yuan shook her head, and closed the door. Master lay sprawled on the bed and fell asleep soundly, with a strand of hair falling on his mouth, rising and falling with the sound of snoring.

"The current master is better..." Recalling the last time the master was sober, Chen Yuan likes this kind of master. If she regains her memory in the future, to be honest, Chen Yuan is not ready for how to get along with her.

Right now, this is the best.

He moved the lamp to the table, stretched out his hand on his left sleeve, and a white snake as thick as a finger appeared in a coiled ball in the palm of his palm. The flesh and blood of his right eye had dried up and protruded outward, which looked quite scary.

"True monarch..."

The white snake moved slightly, and a weak voice came to Chen Yuan's sea of ​​knowledge, "I'm fine... just rest for a few more days... There's no need for Zhenjun to travel so far, don't ask someone..."

"No matter what, I will give you back one eye. This is the principle. You can rest at ease and heal your injury first..."

During the speech, the position of the bed against the wall, 'Boom! ' There was a crash, at first I thought it was the master turning over and knocking his head on the wall, the next moment, there was another dull crash coming from the next door, and several more within a moment.

The crazy old man on the bed showed signs of being woken up.

Chen Yuan frowned. He put the white snake back into his sleeve, opened the door and knocked on the door next door. After a while, there were hurried footsteps inside. Chen Yuan asked what was the matter.

"What do you mean by hitting the wall all the time in your room?"

"I... I accidentally bumped into it."

The man's eyes flickered, and he said something casually, and was about to close the door, but found that the door leaf could not be pushed, and his eyes could not help showing panic.

"Accidentally hit him seven times in a row?" Chen Yuan narrowed her eyes, looked away from the man, and looked inside, the man subconsciously blocked Chen Yuan's sight.

Seeing the man's expression was different, like a guilty conscience, Chen Yuan suddenly thought that he might be a toothless man who gave the woman some kind of medicine to immobilize her limbs and speech, and then abducted and sold her to another country.

"So the impact was caused by your wife?" Chen Yuan raised her hand and pushed, the door pushed the man back a few steps, entered the room, looked around, and saw the woman sitting at the table with red marks on her forehead .He turned his head to look at the man: "What do you say?"

"This gentleman, it's really not what you think." The man didn't know how to explain, sighed, and squatted on the ground.The store guy Ji and the shopkeeper who heard the movement also rushed over, entered the room, saw the woman's forehead was blood red, and there was a red mark on the wall. They had seen all kinds of people, and guessed some bad things.

"Okay, dare to abduct a woman... Come on, follow me to the official!"

As he said that, the shopkeeper and the waiter stretched out their hands to catch the man, but the woman who was sitting in a daze suddenly raised her hand and squeezed the waiter's hand, as if to prevent them from taking the man away.

The man squatting on the ground saw his wife stretching out her hand, cried out with a 'wow', went up and hugged the woman, the man's cry is not good, unless he is sad.

"Hui Lian...my wife..." The thin man hugged the woman's legs and howled, Chen Yuan, the shopkeeper, and the store guy didn't know what was wrong with him.

After a while, the man gradually stopped crying, rubbed his wife's hand, his voice choked up.

"Actually... my wife has been dead for several years... the movement just now was because my wife didn't want to be dragged down, and hit the wall there..."

When he said this, the face of the shopkeeper and the clerk changed greatly in fright, and the clerk hurriedly rubbed the wrist that the woman had grabbed against his body vigorously.The two retreated quietly, not daring to stay in the house anymore.

Chen Yuan looked at the crying man silently, and said in a low voice, "I've been dead for several years... how can there be no corruption?"

"Mr. Lang is absolutely extraordinary, I dare not hide it." The man wiped the corners of his eyes, held his wife's hand, and sucked in his nose: "I met a teacher... I live in Xinzhou under my family. When I came back from doing business outside, it was raining heavily on my way, and I was hiding under a rock. I saw a gentleman coming from a distance, so I gave him the place to hide from the rain. It is said that there will be a funeral in the family in the future, you can take one, and it may change a thing or two."

"And then it became like this?" Chen Yuan frowned.

The man shakes his head.

"In fact, I didn't believe these things at the beginning... I put the pill in my bag and ignored it. Two months later, my wife fell ill and died. I was heartbroken. I didn't think about the pill until three days after the corpse was buried, so I gave it to Huilian. After swallowing it, as the gentleman said, the stiff body gradually softened, warmed up again, and blood appeared on the face...Maybe the time has dragged on for too long, and I can't fully come back to life...It's all my fault! "

The man cried again, and slapped himself hard,

Chen Yuan's tense expression gradually relaxed, she sat on the other side of the woman, and clasped her wrist. Sure enough, she didn't have a pulse, nor could she feel any weak breathing. It was a dead body that looked like it was alive.

There is no corpse aura, probably because of the elixir.

"Xinzhou faces the sea in the east, and it is thousands of miles away from Hejin...Why did you bring her here?"

"My wife followed me from the broken house to the rich and the rich." The man sniffed, "...running the house, waiting for me to come back from outside every day, never going outside to see it, and saying that I will grow old in the future , I went for a walk nearby, but...now she is gone...I also want to fulfill my promise, sell the family property, take her all the way, see the scenery I have never seen before... I heard that there are many places in the Tianshi Mansion. Master, I want to try my luck in the past."

The man choked up and said, while Chen Yuan on the side put down the woman's hand silently. The other party had lost two souls and six souls, and he couldn't help at all.

Immediately, he got up and left the room and went downstairs, walked to the backyard under the eyes of the shopkeeper and the waiter, found some logs from the firewood room, according to the memory in his mind, the logs were pinched by magic power, and the sawdust fell to the ground. The space is turned into usable wooden strips and boards, and the outline of the wheelchair is quickly assembled under the control.

……

In the inn room, the man wiped away his tears and was about to close the door when he saw the gentleman who had just left came back with something like a chair in his hand.

"It can't help you much, but this wheelchair saves you a lot of work. You don't have to carry your wife up and down."

Looking at the chair with a pair of large wooden wheels and a pair of small wooden wheels in front of him, the man's eyes were red, and he repeatedly thanked Chen Yuan.

"No, you love your wife so much, I believe there will be a miracle. You can go to the Tianshi Mansion, or go to Lingyun Temple in Cangyu Mountain."

"Grandpa, wait!"

Seeing Chen Yuan turn around to leave, the man hurriedly called Chen Yuan back, got up and went back to the room, turned around for a while, and took two apricot yellow elixirs the size of little fingers.

"You take this elixir."

"No, it's just a wheelchair."

"Is it a kindness? I have never had anyone to help me all the way here. Only my benefactor asked and gave me advice. I am grateful in my heart." The man knelt down on the ground with a bang.

"Your benefactor, please accept it."

Seeing his sincerity, he seemed as if Chen Yuan wouldn't get up if he didn't take it, so he had to take one from the man's hand.

"Then... I'll only take one, and there's one left. You can keep it for yourself as an emergency."

As she spoke, she picked up the man and pushed him back into the room. Chen Yuan then went back to sleep. Looking at the elixir twisted with her fingertips, there was a faint fragrance mixed with... the smell of fox?
Mr. Teacher?

Fox flavor... Could it be the middle-aged scholar a few years ago?
"I didn't expect to hear him here..." Chen Yuan muttered, the master next to him turned over, slapped him down, and called him: "Shut up, sleep!"

Chen Yuan smiled, put away the elixir, raised her hand and flicked it, and the oil lamp on the table went out with a snap.

The cold moonlight gradually slanted westward with the night.

Chuyang spilled into the room through the cracks in the window sills. The man got up early, carried his wife to the wheelchair, and pushed her around the room twice, feeling even more grateful in his heart.

He hurriedly knocked on the door of the next room, wanting to thank him again, but what he saw was the guy who cleaned the room.

"Excuse me, little brother, where is the gentleman from yesterday?"

The man gave him a disgusted look, and replied impatiently, "I'm leaving."

The man hurried down the stairs and rushed to the streets of the town, but unfortunately he didn't see the figure leaving, so he had to stand on the street, facing one direction, and cupped his hands in gratitude.

……

The sun broke through the gaps in the clouds and shone on the lush mountains and forests.

Chen Yuan, who was grateful, drove the bullock cart on the ups and downs of the mountain road. On the way, nothing happened again. She took a shortcut and arrived at the foot of Taiwu Mountain.

Looking at the mountains from a distance, you can see the majestic and majestic buildings standing upright and the mountains and clouds appearing and disappearing.
