Chapter 227 Jiuquan Town, Missionary (Please ask for a monthly ticket! Please subscribe)
Jiuquan Town is to the north of Caojia Town, with Shijia Town in the middle. The town is about the same size as Shijia Town, and there is the largest church in the nearby villages and towns.

The church in the town once attracted people from ten miles and eight villages to pray here. After all, it is useless to worship the traditional Chinese gods in this year, otherwise the times would not be so chaotic, and the people would not be so miserable, so everyone wanted to try it. Let's see whether worshiping foreign gods works or not.

After all, it is said that foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures.

But the facts have proved that foreign gods seem to have no control over their own affairs, so they are useless. Over time, fewer people come here to pray. Coupled with some incidents, the church has been abandoned for 20 years.

But it's still a landmark in town.

From a distance, Xu Luo rode on his horse and saw the white church roof in the town in the distance. It was higher than the average height of the buildings in the town, so it was very conspicuous.

In order not to affect the holding of the exchange meeting, he did not bring soldiers in, but asked Wangcai to lead a large army to find an open space on the edge of the town to camp. He took Wu Xingsu into the town to find out the situation first.

"Marshal, I'll be there soon. My ninth brother has a Taoist temple in Jiuquan Town, so we can just go and stay overnight." Wu Xingsu reined in his horse and stood up, showing Xu Luo his strong connections with joy.

Xu Luo, who was wearing a black gown and a top hat, twitched his lips and said, "I met you, Brother Ninth, once, and I don't know if he's here."

"I didn't expect that the commander-in-chief and our people in Maoshan have intersected for a long time. This is fate." Wu Xingsu was very surprised, and then smiled: "It's okay if he's not here, he has two apprentices here."

Xu Luo was very skeptical that Uncle Nine took in two apprentices in every village and town, was it just to show him the houses, after all, these apprentices were all bad guys.

"Aren't you afraid of the ordinary people in the town if the exchange meeting is held in the town?" Xu Luo asked. At first he thought the exchange meeting would be in a certain mountain on the side of Jiuquan Town, but he didn't expect it to be in the town.

Wu Xingsu smiled wryly and shook his head: "In the past, the Spiritual World Exchange Conference was an internal exchange, but now it has long since become a trade fair, where things are sold, and most of them are sold to ordinary people who are laymen."

Speaking of this, he sighed: "Since the spiritual energy has been exhausted, most people in the fantasy world have already focused on making money. After all, there is no hope of immortality, so they have to eat! Of course, there are still some who are thinking about having a son without fart inflammation." Longevity by engaging in crooked ways."

Now there are two ways to live longer. The first is to do more good deeds, accumulate Yin virtues, and get mixed up in the underworld after death, but this road is too complicated, and there are also many underworld establishments. Everyone's sect has been taken away.

The second way is to engage in crooked ways. Although some of these ways can achieve longevity, they all have flaws, and they belong to the evil way, which is not tolerated by the righteous way in the spiritual world.

Listening to Wu Xingsu's curse, Xu Luo felt offended, but luckily he didn't want children.

This is also for the good of the child. If the child is born without fart inflammation, isn't that a crime?

The two entered the town while chatting. At this time, some people from the fantasy world could already be seen in the town, and most of them set up fortune-telling booths.

If these guys were full of aura, they would be immortals, but now, life forces them to go deep into the masses, and because they are too convoluted inside, they are all paid for fortune-telling, talisman drawing, and feng shui. He lowered himself again and again.

Wu Xingsu took Xu Luo to a house opposite the church, Xu Luo was waiting at the door, he went up to knock on the door, and shouted while knocking: "Brother!"

After a while, a young man opened the door with sleepy eyes, saw Wu Xingsu and yawned, "Uncle Wu, my master is not here."

The moment Xu Luo saw this young man, there was something in Xu Luo's heart that wanted to blurt out:

Chang Wei!You also said you don't know martial arts!
"Why isn't he here? He didn't come to the exchange meeting?" Wu Xingsu asked with a puzzled face. It made sense not to come too far away. Uncle Jiu has a house in Jiuquan Town, so he didn't come to join in the fun.

A Xing rubbed his eyes and replied: "Brother Abao is getting married this month, and the master can't get away. As a parent, he has to help Abao arrange the marriage."

Speaking of which, he sighed, and said helplessly: "Qiusheng, Wencai, Aqiang and the others will definitely all go to the feast and be happy, but Xiaoyue and I will be miserable, because the exchange meeting, the master said Mermaids and dragons are mixed together, let the two of us stay as housekeepers."

Hearing this, Xu Luo knew that the plot change must have been caused by him killing Mr. Shi. Without Mr. Shi pestering Xiaozhu, the marriage contract between Xiaozhu and Fei Bao would naturally continue to be carried out.

And they got married so soon, mostly because Uncle Jiu was afraid that after Mr. Shi's incident, there would be extra troubles, and he wanted to prevent another person with better conditions than Fei Bao from harassing Xiao Zhu, and Xu Luo estimated that Uncle Jiu was guarding against this. The person, I am afraid it is Xu Mou.

"Okay, Ah Xing, please prepare two rooms for us. We will stay for a few days during the exchange meeting." Although Wu Xingsu was a little regretful when he heard that Uncle Jiu was not at home, he quickly got down to business.

Ah Xing just glanced at Xu Luo, and asked Wu Xingsu curiously: "Master, this is your new apprentice, he looks white and tender, he doesn't look like a poor family, why would he do anything to you?" this?"

These days, the rich don't know how to learn Taoism, and only the poor who can't survive will take this path.

"No, he is..." Wu Xingsu suddenly got stuck at this point, hesitant to speak, because he wanted to say that Xu Luo was his boss, but he really couldn't say it.

After all, if he was facing Uncle Jiu, he could still say frankly that he was employed by Xu Luo, but when facing a junior like A Xing, he couldn't lose the face of his elders.

Xu Luo opened his mouth to help him out of the siege, took two steps forward and smiled kindly at Ah Xing: "Yes, I am the new disciple of Master, my name is Xu Luo, hello."

After the words fell, he stretched out a hand.

"Hello, hello, my name is A Xing." A Xing stared at Xu Luo's outstretched hand for a moment, then suddenly realized, and quickly held it with a smile on his face.

"Senior brother, who is it!" Accompanied by a crisp female voice in the room, a handsome girl with two braids came out. Color trousers, a pair of cloth shoes on the feet, a graceful and slender figure, full of youthful atmosphere.

She was stunned for a moment when she saw Xu Luo, and her first reaction was a handsome brother, much better-looking than her senior brother, tall, big, and fair.

"It's Uncle Wu and his new apprentice. They will stay for two days." A Xing explained the situation to Xiaoyue.

Xu Luo smiled slightly at Xiaoyue, this should be Uncle Nine's only female apprentice, she let go of Ah Xing's hand and reached out to her: "Hello senior sister, my name is Xu Luo, I might disturb you for a few days. "

Uncle Nine raised his apprentice like a son, but wouldn't he raise his only female apprentice like his own daughter?Wouldn't it be wonderful if he got her in his hands.

"Oh, hello, hello, don't bother, everyone is a brother of the same school." Xiaoyue quickly held Xu Luo's hand, and after letting go, she said quickly: "Brother, entertain the uncle and the others, and I will clean up the room."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Ah Xing to respond, he hurriedly turned around and ran into the house, his back was also very graceful.

"Uncle Wu, Junior Brother Xu, don't mind, she's just frizzy." A Xing scratched the back of his head and shrugged, then hurried out to pick up the horses of the two: "Uncle, you go and sit first, I'll help you lead the horses to the backyard."

Xu Luo and Wu Xingsu entered the main room first.

When Ah Xing came back, he saw Wu Xingsu pouring tea for Xu Luo, his eyes widened instantly, and he could only sigh: The same world, different masters.

"Uncle, Junior Brother Xu, your rooms are already packed." After a while, Xiaoyue ran out with a face full of joy and said with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Xu smiled slightly, then stood up and said, "Can you show me around? I often hear Master say that Uncle Ninth is the most outstanding disciple of his generation, and I am very interested in his dojo."

These words are purely flattery, according to Wu Xingsu, the most outstanding person of Maoshan's generation should be the big brother Shi Jian, he is invincible with the Lightning and Thunder Fist.

It is entirely because the world has restricted his development, otherwise he would have succeeded in forming alchemy long ago, and he would have hoped to become an immortal.

"Of course it's no problem, I'll show you around!" Hearing Xu Luo boasting about his master, Ah Xing and Rong had a relationship, so he immediately volunteered to be a tour guide.

"Brother, you should greet uncle." Xiaoyue glared at him, then turned her head and showed a gentle and shy smile to Xu Luo: "Brother Xu, please."

Xu Luo got up and went out of the main room with Xiaoyue.

"My mind was trapped by the door today, I'm not as fufu as usual." Looking at the backs of the two, Ah Xing looked puzzled, the junior sister was very abnormal today.

Of course Wu Xingsu knew why, which girl doesn't have a spring?What's more, when facing Xu Luo, regardless of Xu Luo's personality, this appearance can really confuse people.

Not to mention the awkward chat between Ah Xing and Wu Xingsu, Xu Luo wandered around the yard with Xiaoyue, and came to the place where Uncle Jiu usually practiced. There was a statue of the founder of Maoshan enshrined inside, and various commonly used magic weapons were placed on the table.

"Hey, Junior Brother Xu, this is the place where Master usually opens the altar and draws talismans to meditate." Xiaoyue put a stick of incense on the Patriarch, and then lifted the curtain of a side room next to him, and all the things placed inside were a A big jar sealed with a yellow talisman.

Xu Luo's eyes lit up: "Is this all a ghost?"

Zombies need blood, corpse qi, and yin qi to advance to flying corpses. Blood is found from living people, corpse qi is found from similar bodies, and yin qi is found from ghosts, so these jars are all feeding zombies in Xu Luo’s view. Nutrients are all treasures!
"That's right, they are all caught by Master." Xiaoyue nodded, and added: "It's not just that, there are also ghosts in other towns. Master seldom beats ghosts to death. They are all arrested and locked up."

"Uncle Jiu is merciful, he is worthy of being Maoshan's contemporary No. 1." Not to mention how excited Xu Luo was, if he got all the ghosts in Uncle Jiu's hands, it would be enough to raise the royal zombies to armor corpses .

Isn't this more convenient than looking for ghosts everywhere?
Well, let's start with Jiuquan Town. Anyway, Uncle Jiu has no other skills, so he can only guard one town at most.

When he turned around and went out to step over the threshold, Xu Luo grabbed Xiaoyue's hand and said, "Be careful not to drop it."

Xiaoyue blushed, she didn't think of being taken advantage of, she just felt that Junior Brother Xu was so caring.

"I'm sorry..." After leaving the door, Xu Luocai suddenly remembered that he was still holding her hand, and quickly let go, showing an apologetic and embarrassed expression.

Xiaoyue lowered her head and said: "It's okay, senior brother often carries me on the back, it doesn't matter."

Of course, the two felt different to her. She was happy to fight with her senior brother, but she had an indescribable feeling when she was held by Junior Brother Xu.

"It's almost done, senior sister, let's go back." Xu Luo sighed in his heart, he was so damn handsome and charming that he couldn't hide it.

The two returned to the main room, and then the four of them drank tea and chatted, mainly A Xing and Xu Luo were chatting, and Xiaoyue kept pouring tea for them.

For the rest of the time, he kept staring at Xu Luo.

"Hey, Xiaoyue, it's noon, let's go cook." A Xing waved his hand in front of her, and said angrily, "Can you fill your stomach just by looking at people?"

No matter how stupid he is, he can see that Xiaoyue is interested in Xu Luo, and he feels a little upset, of course it's not that he likes Xiaoyue, he has always regarded Xiaoyue as his younger sister.

It's purely the annoyance that my sister is going to be bullied.

"Oh, Uncle Master, Junior Brother Xu, please sit down for a while, and I'll cook now." Xiaoyue finally came to her senses, feeling a little embarrassed, but she thought to herself: Staring at Junior Brother Xu really fills my stomach.

At least she forgot to eat.

Could this be the legendary beauty and delicious food?
Xu Luo quickly said: "Senior Sister Xiaoyue, don't bother me so much, I'll treat you this time. After all, I'm sorry to bother you in the past few days. Let me treat you to a meal to express my heart."

"No, no, no..." Xiaoyue waved her hands again and again, but Ah Xing interrupted her: "Since Junior Brother Xu is so enthusiastic and wants to treat guests, of course we have to save face. You have time to cook these few days, why are you in a hurry."

After a big meal, Ah Xing was successfully bought.

………………

In a blink of an eye, the time came to the night of July [-]th.

Usually at this time, apart from the watchman who was working the watch, there were basically no other living people to be seen on the street.

But tonight, the street was still bustling with noise. People from the fantasy world set up stalls along the street in front of the church, and the townspeople and some people from the fantasy world who heard the news shuttled among them, looking for the goods they wanted.

The goods sold on the stall are also strange and strange, some sell all kinds of talisman papers, fortune tellers, ghosts, zombies, pills, magical instruments and herbs, miscellaneous everything... …

"Come and take a look! Don't miss it when you pass by! Freshly unearthed zombies from the Qing Dynasty!"

"A flamboyant ghost! It's already been trained! I understand everything, and I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun buying it back! Only cultivators can buy it, and ordinary people don't come here... This fellow, don't touch it if you don't buy it! "

"Five Poison Water! Qihuang Cave Five Poison Water! Freshly prepared, the toxicity is guaranteed, and the quantity is good!"

Axing and Xiaoyue, who participated in the exchange meeting for the first time, were dazzled, and Xu Luo was also quite novel. Only Wu Xingsu's expression did not fluctuate. He has been helping Xu Luo to keep an eye on whether there are any treasures for sale.

"Brother Xu, look quickly, who are those people!" Suddenly, Xiaoyue, who was walking beside Xu Luo, shook his arm and said, pointing at a group of people.

Xu Luo turned his head to look, and saw a group of people wearing brown cloaks and crosses hanging on their chests from far to near. They were very conspicuous on the street because they all had Mediterranean hairstyles and lacked a piece of hair.

"This is the Western priest, and he probably came here for this church." Wu Xingsu pointed to the church, and then said contemptuously to Xu Luo: "Big... Ah Luo, these Western priests are all ostentatious, except they can read scriptures And fooling people, they have nothing to do with it."

The arrival of these Western missionaries is to compete with them for business, so they are very repulsed by them.

And this group of missionaries is panicking now.

"Fater, this place is so weird, why don't we go to another place to preach?" Father Wu's son looked around at the stalls selling zombies and ghosts, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead, and whispered to his father.

"The more weird it is, the more we need the glory of the Lord." Father Wu looked firm, but he couldn't help holding the cross on his chest. In fact, he was also very scared in his heart, but he couldn't show it.

Before returning to China, he always thought that the Taoist priests and gods and ghosts in China were feudal superstitions and did not understand science, but now, he found that he was wrong, not because they did not understand science, but because he did not understand metaphysics!
The country seems too dangerous.

But they've all come here, and he's already inquired before that there's only this abandoned church within a radius of ten miles, and they have nowhere else to go.

Father Wu's son held the cross and dangled around, tremblingly following Father Wu, wishing he could fly directly to the church.

"Hahaha, little fake foreign devils, your masters abroad are useless to our domestic ghosts."

"That's right, don't shake your broken frame."

People in the fantasy world laughed one after another.

In the eyes of everyone, the group of missionaries pushed open the door of the church that had been dusty for 20 years, then walked in, and soon there were lights in the windows.

Through the window, you can see busy figures inside, obviously cleaning up, and it has been abandoned for 20 years, so the inside must be very dilapidated.

"Master Yixiu?"

Xu Luo frowned. The elderly priest who was walking in the front just now looked the same as Master Yixiu.

Master Yixiu's long-lost brother?
Or is there some other connection?
"Look at the Millennium Ganoderma! The genuine Millennium Ganoderma! Full of spiritual energy! The highest price wins!"

With the sound of selling the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, most of the people on the street rushed away.

Even if you don't want to buy it, you can still go to see it. After all, rare treasures are too rare in this day and age.

"Marshal, let's go and have a look too. If it's really a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, it's a treasure!" Wu Xingsu hurriedly pulled Xu Luo over excitedly.

Behind him, Xiaoyue and A Xing looked at each other: "What did Uncle Wu call Xu just now... Marshal? Marshal!"

Could this be Junior Brother Xu's nickname?
