Cultivate Taoism and farm to make peace in the world

Chapter 114

"Later, a city was built that stretched fifteen miles from north to south."

Looking at Jiang Xuan's surprised eyes, Qu Jiulang said again, "It's just that something happened during the construction of the city."

After taking another sip of strong wine, he continued:
"At that time, with the help of the monks, the three city walls on the south, west, and north of Jersey County were built in only ten days."

"Only the east wall collapses every time it is built. As long as the height exceeds five meters, it will definitely collapse, even if the monks use magic to build the wall."

"When everyone was at a loss what to do, a heretic monk said that evil spirits had caused chaos in Jersey County."

"If you want the east wall, you need to find a girl who was born on a certain day in a certain year and put it in a large urn and bury it in the ground, so that the city wall can stand up."

"How could the arrogant monks be willing to do this?"

"There were even a few grumpy cultivators from the Divine Firmament, who were about to smash the heretical cultivator into scum with their hands on the spot."

"Of course, those seniors of your sect were stopped in the end, otherwise it wouldn't be the case now."

Hearing this, Jiang Xuan drank the strong wine in the cup in front of him in one gulp.

If he found out who used girls as human sacrifices, he would probably be in the same style as those seniors.

Even if you can't beat it yourself, you will send a letter to the master so that someone who can beat it will come.

While thinking, Qu Jiulang's voice reached Jiang Xuan's ears again:

"The monks naturally wouldn't trust the words of the heretic monk, so they cast their spells and prepared to build cities in other places."

"It turned out to be the same as that heresy monk said."

"As long as the wall is built within the boundaries of Jersey County, no matter what it looks like, the wall facing the east will definitely collapse."

"Even if the wall on the east side is made into an obtuse angle."

"Just when those monks sent a letter to the sect and wanted to ask the strong of the sect to move the people to other regions, the magistrate of Jersey County made a move at that time."

"He found the heretical monk who proposed the human sacrifice, and together they found the girl's parents and told them all about it."

"But how could the girl's family be willing to let their child be buried under the city wall?"

"In the end, the county magistrate promised the girl's family a thousand taels of gold, and then gave the girl's eldest brother the status of a scholar, so that the girl's family let go."

Having said that, Qu Jiulang had a complex and incomprehensible expression on his face:

"However, Nazhi County has a bit of conscience. There is no living sacrifice. Instead, I went to my Qu's house to ask for a piece of apricot flower wine, and buried it under the city wall after the girl died of drunkenness."

"After the other monks know the news, the city wall has already been erected."

"In anger, Brother Shenxiao left first."

"It's just that those seniors of your sect didn't leave directly, but cleaned up the evil spirits on the ground to vent their anger before returning to the sect."

"The rest of the monks sketched the pattern on the city wall and left one after another, leaving only the leftist monk to be thanked."

After saying that, he took another sip of the spirits.

As for Jiang Xuan, when he heard this, he recovered:

"So that girl became a wall girl, and her resentful spirit has been wandering around the city wall?"

"As for this apricot blossom wine, is it a medium to communicate with the wall girl?"

"No, if it was a resentful soul, the city wall would have collapsed long ago."

"Yeah, she is not a resentful soul, so I want to save her as a Taoist priest."

This time it was Shen Xuzi who answered Jiang Xuan's question.

Turning his head to look at Shen Xuzi, Jiang Xuan found that he did not know when he took out a white Bana flower.

"Brother Jiang, Taoist priest, I broke your bottle of apricot blossom wine, you won't blame Taoist priest me?"

Seeing Jiang Xuan shaking his head, Shen Xuzi smiled wantonly and poured the apricot blossom brew on the Bana flower that he put in the corner.

The next moment, the originally sluggish Bianhua flower emitted a pale light, and the gray mist also spread on the city wall.

Seeing the fog on the city wall, the city guards on duty fled down the city wall as if they had seen a ghost.

After a while, the entire city wall was wrapped in gray mist.

Countless shapes of ghosts and ghosts were condensed in the mist, setting off the entire city wall like the Nine Nether Hell.

On the other hand, the blossoming candles on the top of the city seemed to become guiding lights, guiding the souls back to their destination.

Under the candlelight, Shen Xuzi squeezed the soul-calling seal and recited the soul-calling mantra in a low voice:
"Wandering souls, where do they stay; the three souls descend early, and the seven souls come.

Fields by the river, temples and villages; court prisons, tombs and forests.

False shock and weirdness, lost true soul.”

The county government in the city.

The magistrate, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened from his sleep by the guards. After hearing what happened on the east wall, he hurriedly climbed up the inner city wall in a nightgown.

"Master Yang, are you here?"

Just before he got up on the tower, a scribe came to him, "Master Xu and the others are already waiting in the tower."

With that said, he handed over a set of official uniforms.

Putting on the official uniform casually, Yang De nodded to the scribes and entered the tower.

As soon as he entered the city tower and saw those monks wanting to greet him, he hurriedly waved his hands and asked:
"Shen Xuzi sacrificed to the wall girl again?"

Hearing Yang De's question, the monks showed complicated expressions, and finally the monk named Daoist Xu nodded, "Yes, he went to sacrifice to the wall girl again."

"I sacrificed eight times before, and counting this time, it will be nine times."

"Nine thousand lights."

Xu Wen's voice was full of emotion.

As his words fell, the monks' praise suddenly sounded in the city tower:
"Daoist Shen, if you have the Tao, you can truly cultivate."

"Pindao is not as good as him, even if Pindao is lucky enough to enter the mana realm, Daoist Shen is still in the Daoist realm, but he is still not as good as him."

"Nine thousand lights were sacrificed to the wall girl, but there is still a thousand flowers left before consummation"

Hearing the compliments from the monks, Yang De had an apprehensive look on his face, "There won't be any problems this time, right?"

"More than ten years ago, when Daoist Shen used lights to sacrifice to the wall girl for the first time, all the soldiers on the city wall obtained the certificate of leaving the soul, and it took a full three months before they woke up."

Seeing Yang De's uneasy expression, Xu Wen waved his hand and comforted him, "Don't worry, Mr. Yang, you'll be fine."

"At that time, the Wall Maiden showed up for the first time, and with the resentment that had been suppressed for a long time, she only let the guards leave their souls for three months, which is already considered her kindness."

"Now that the Wall Girl has been sacrificed eight times, there is almost no resentment on her body, so naturally it will not affect the county."

"However, it seems that Daoist Shen wants to sacrifice to the wall girl ten times in order to complete the merits and virtues and let the wall girl's spirit body escape from trouble."

"So how to arrange for the wall girl after she is out of trouble, you still need to worry about knowing the county."

"After all, the wall girl's body has long been integrated with the city wall, and she can't leave Jersey County even after she escapes."

Hearing Xu Wen's words, Yang De immediately frowned.

Jiang Xuan naturally didn't know everything about the inner city wall and towers.

At this moment, he was looking at the little girl counting bricks on the city wall.

“13万六千770七，13万六千770八，13万六千770九.”

As she counted, she seemed to suddenly feel something was wrong, and when she looked up, she immediately showed a surprised expression, "Brother Kidney Deficiency!"

With a cry of surprise, she flew up and threw herself into Shen Xuzi's arms.
