Lingxian Zhenjun

Chapter 174 Shadow Gu
"The lord goes first, and Wei Duan guards the door later, so the villain will not let the repeated villains chase out the door, wow..."

With plain words mixed with weird opera accents, on the simple stage, a mighty puppet with a slightly yellow complexion was pulled by silk threads to come alive, grabbed two puppets dressed as soldiers and guarded the background of the city gate, and performed a mighty general. There are heroic and tragic stories.

"Brother, the story is very good, but I don't quite understand it!"

"Ha ha!"

"Can you come back tomorrow?"

"No, play in the mountains and rivers downstream, tell the story of this puppet, let people listen to it."

After dismantling the crude stage and loading it into the car, Chen Yuan smiled and said goodbye to the people in this town. Those who didn't know her probably thought that Chen Yuan was just an ordinary juggler.

It was past noon at this time, I packed up the stage and all the utensils, and continued on my way south after having lunch with my master. The land of Xiazhou, according to Chen Yuan's eyes, should be the place of northern Shaanxi for later generations, but it was not so desolate. There are mountain beams and hillocks, the forests are lush, and only occasionally some hillsides show brown and yellow mud.

Because the mountains are too dense, there are few people living in a radius of tens of miles. Once you leave this town, you will have the illusion of stepping into a barren mountain.

"The toad is still following."

The crazy old man put down a wooden sculpture in his hand, and glanced at the woods outside the car. The rustling movement stopped immediately. He looked around for a while with a circle of branches, then spread his flippers and continued to follow.

"Zhenjun, then Zi Xing, do you have something else you want to ask Zhenjun?" In the car, the little white snake poked its head and spoke with demon power.It is also a demon, and if you can meet someone of the same kind who can talk, you still want to say something nice to him.

"If it doesn't speak, don't worry about it. Even if it speaks, I may not be able to respond to my request."

There is a causal relationship, where there is a cause, there will be results. Chen Yuan has not yet become familiar with the toad to that extent. The weather in June is hot and dry in the north. After walking along the road to the south for a while, she asked the old cow to stop. Stopped in front of an abandoned house.

Looking at the shape of the house, it used to be a roadside tea shop, but it was abandoned for a long time without repairing, and half of the roof collapsed. I think the previous owner may have died, or the road was barren and few people came and went. There was no business, so I moved to other places to make a living. .

There are still remnants of the bonfire burning inside, most likely there are also past business travelers, who stayed here in the middle of the night, Chen Yuan did not dislike the dilapidation, so she put a low stool on the eaves, invited the master to sit down, and poured a bowl full of wine from the inn in the town Herbal tea, to quench Master's thirst.

The crazy old man was full of energy, drank his tea in one gulp, got into the room and looked around.Chen Yuan took off the old cow's rein, "Go and play, remember to come back in half an hour."

Patting the horns of the old cow, he took the Moon Misty Sword and danced through it. With the annoying chirping of cicadas in the forest, he flipped through "Miscellaneous Mysteries of Huangchuan".

He remembered that there was a spell in the book called Shadow Stepping Gu, which seemed to be near Xiazhou.

The pages of the book flipped quickly, and then stopped to look at the contents.

"In the land of summer, there are many visions. There are ghosts and ghosts for a long time. There are cracks in the porcelain tiles that can produce shadow ghosts. They often suck human shadows and do harm. Refining them into weapons can transform nine shadows and be driven by those who hold them."

Can transform Nine Shadows... Tsk tsk, isn't that similar to Chengyunmen's avatar?

Half a month ago, he had seen the so-called divine talismans in Chengyun Sect, such as divine amulet, avatar talisman, and other magical talismans, which were comparable to the talismans of invisibility, wall penetration, god concealment, and swift movement in the Tianshi Mansion. Let more.

'The Shadow Stepping Gu is very useful, since you are here, you might as well collect it in the book, learn it whenever you want, and don't be afraid of forgetting it. '

Chen Yuan turned the pages of the book and was thinking, when she heard the sound of horseshoes and wheels, she thought it was just a passing businessman, so she didn't raise her head.The sound of cars and horses passing by from far and near stopped in the middle of the road.

"Little brother, have you encountered a difficult problem?"

Chen Yuan raised her face when she heard the words. It was a carriage of a wealthy family, pulled by two horses, with a driver on it, and six nursing homes around it. Just looking over, I saw him sitting on the eaves, a strange carriage was parked, but no livestock pulling the cart, probably thought that he had encountered robbers and ransacked the livestock, and that's why he asked the question just now.

This person was enthusiastic, Chen Yuan smiled and cupped her hands and replied: "This brother, I haven't encountered any difficulties, so I just rest here."

"I see, I interrupted you." The man put down the curtain with a smile, but took out a few pieces of silver from his sleeve, and handed it to the driver outside, "Take it, and give it to the young man."

"Yes, sir."

The driver left, and there was a woman next to the man, who poked her husband's thigh with her finger: "He said that he didn't encounter any difficulties. If you give him money, isn't it an insult to him?"

"What do you know as a woman?" The man stroked his beard and smiled lightly: "From my point of view, he must have encountered a difficult situation, otherwise why would he not be pulling the cart and the livestock? It's just a forced smile under the eaves to save face. I just happened to pass by , and capable, be one or two of the gang.”

"As long as you can." The woman rolled her husband's eyes, but there was still a smile on the corner of her mouth. She liked her husband's generosity and righteousness the most. If it weren't for this temperament, it would be difficult to have today's family fortune.

After a while, the coachman came back, and the man lifted the curtain and cupped his hands to Chen Yuan, who was holding the broken silver under the eaves, and said, "Little brother, don't be discouraged!"

Ha ha!

this person...

Chen Yuan looked at the silver in her hand, got up and walked out of the eaves, and saluted the man in the car, but at this moment, she found a black cloud hovering over the man's head, which was not a good omen, but unfortunately she was not familiar with the man, and she didn't know where the man was going. I just have to mention one thing.

"Brother, if you encounter any strange things recently, don't hesitate. You should get away and run south along this road."

"Okay, farewell!"

The man put down the curtain with a smile, shook his head and said: "This young man is really stubborn, and he returned the words to me. Going to a wedding banquet, what strange things can happen."

"I don't listen to concubines." The woman smiled and patted her husband, then asked the driver to drive away.

Here, Chen Yuan watched the carriage go away, and didn't pay much attention to it. Bad things happen in this world from time to time, and it's impossible for her to manage them all. After reading the book for a while, she determined the route of the Shadow Stepping Gu. , then called back to Lao Niu, set off again, continued south along the road under his feet, and slowly identified the directions according to the directions recorded in the book.

The sun was setting in the west and the sky was getting darker, so we temporarily stopped in an old temple in front of us. The temple was an abandoned temple. The so-called wilderness and abandoned temples are not allowed to enter. But when Chen Yuan came in, the yin energy in the original temple suddenly dissipated. The few lonely ghosts inside were frightened and fled in panic, and flew elsewhere.

Soon, the bonfire was lit, and the little white snake turned into a huge figure, and climbed up the wall to the beams and pillars.

Chen Yuan leaned on the master who was pecking at the head bit by bit under the light of the fire, flipping through the book with relish.

The small pot was placed on the fire, and the warm air gradually rose.

……

In the night, a few miles to the north, the carriage that Chen Yuan had seen drove into a forest. The couple got out of the carriage and looked at the mansion in front of it. There were red lanterns hanging high, and there were guests from time to time. Hand over the famous post to the receptionist in the courtyard to welcome you into the gate of the courtyard.

"It's here, I didn't expect to live in such a remote place."

"Stop nagging, go, go in!"

The husband took his wife and walked to the courtyard gate with only two nurses, handed over name cards, and then followed the guests into the courtyard. After a while, the courtyard door slowly closed with an old murmur.

The woman seemed to hear the movement, and looked back, feeling that something was wrong with her.

　Two more, and one more.

　　It's another short story, this time it won't be warm.
