The Guardian Spirit of the Emperor in Zhenhun Street

Chapter 54 Geng Shouchang

Qin Nan stabilized his body with one hand on the ground, so as not to completely fall to the ground. Looking back at the entrance where the light was gradually dimming, he realized that he had entered the dilapidated Soul-Suppressing Street at this moment.

Surprised in my heart, I bent my elbow to accumulate strength, and pushed down hard suddenly, and my body jumped up.

Facing the unfamiliar Zhenhun Street, his muscles tensed all over his body, and he looked around vigilantly.

The sky is gray and white, without any stars.

The sky is densely covered with space cracks like graffitied white paper. The space cracks are not stable. Every moment, cracks collapse silently, and a new space crack will appear in the next second, or even bigger.

The street was empty, and the buildings on both sides of the street were all dilapidated. Countless fragments of bricks and tiles fell on the street, and collapsed buildings completely blocked the street.

The entire Zhenhun Street was completely dead silent, without any life, so quiet that Qin Nan could hear his own heartbeat.

There doesn't seem to be any danger.

Qin Nan was still a little worried. He took off the guitar case, took Ding Qinjian in his hand, put the pink peaked cap that Zhao Bainan gave him, closed the lid, put the guitar case on his back again, and glanced at the person behind him. At the entrance, I felt ruthless in my heart, since I have come here, it would be a waste of time not to explore.

The streets were full of fallen bricks, stones and tiles. Every time Qin Nan took a step, his feet would click, which was especially obvious in the dead and silent streets.

I don't know how long he walked. Qin Nan didn't find anything. He even entered some relatively complete buildings, which were covered with a thick layer of dust. At a glance, he knew that no one or undead had visited for a long time. .

It was meaningless to search in the street again. Qin Nan stopped and changed direction and started to move towards the center of Zhenhun Street.

Generally speaking, the center of Soul-Suppressing Street is where the Soul-Suppressing Generals live. Qin Nan is going to check it out, and if he hasn't found it, he will return to the human world.

Qin Nan came to the center of Zhenhun Street and looked at the lawn in the center with a glimmer of light in his eyes.

someone!

The grass on the lawn should be dense and disorderly, but although the lawn in front of me is still a bit messy, it has obviously been trimmed by someone, although the technology is not very good.

Qin Nan stared intently at the only house on the lawn. If there were people there, they could only be inside.

There are no trees on the lawn, not even shrubs, it is all lawn, the only house has no obvious oriental or western style, it is about ten meters high, there are no windows, and I don’t know how many floors there are, the only one The opening of the door is the bottom door. The door is closed tightly. It seems to be made of some kind of metal. There are spots of rust on the silver-white door.

The whole house is superimposed with huge stones, which has no aesthetic feeling, like a bunker, and even the walls are not decorated. The gray stones are naked and exposed, and there is no trace of cement used in the joints of the stones. , Not even trimmed, some uneven, let the wind and rain erosion.

"Is anyone there?" Qin Nan shouted while holding the Ding Qin sword tightly.

There was a dead silence in the center of the street, and there was no answering voice.

Qin Nan couldn't help being more vigilant. The manicured lawn had already proved that someone existed, but there was no response to him, which meant that the people inside didn't have much kindness towards him.

Thinking of this, Qin Nan couldn't help stepping back. He didn't know the strength of the person inside. Since it was just an exploration and there was no necessary purpose, there was no need to fight him head-on.

Just as Qin Nan was about to leave, there was a "creak" behind him, and the dry and piercing friction made Qin Nan frown, but then his body turned around, and the Ding Qin sword in his hand was held horizontally in front of his chest, watching The metal door opened slowly.

"boom"

The gate was fully opened, and a huge figure walked out from behind the gate. He even had to bend over to get out of the 4-meter-high gate.

His gray and messy hair was randomly fixed on the capital by a wooden stick, and the long beard on his chin almost reached his knees. He was wearing a white Confucian robe, and a faint blue color could still be seen at the seams, obviously in the past. The robe is blue in color.

Guardian spirit?
The guardian spirit on the lawn was extremely thin, the thinnest guardian spirit Qin Nan had ever seen, with sunken cheeks, sunken eye sockets, and no muscle on his face, like a skeleton covered with a layer of skin.

The wide Confucian robe looked empty on him, and every step was extremely difficult.

"My little friend, I'm sorry, I haven't had any visitors for a long time, so I came to greet guests after washing and dressing up." The guardian spirit's voice was dry, and every sentence seemed extremely labored.

Qin Nan didn't let down his vigilance just because of the guardian spirit's overtures. After nodding his head, he said, "My name is Qin Nan. I just came in to explore when I happened to find the entrance of Zhenhun Street. Please forgive me if I disturb you." , how about I leave now?"

The old guardian spirit didn't care about Qin Nan's vigilance. After hearing Qin Nan's words, he nodded slightly, and continued to speak after thinking for a while, "If you have something urgent, you should leave. welcome in as a guest”

The guardian spirit extended a hand towards the door in a welcoming gesture.

Qin Nan shook his head slightly, "I don't know whether we are enemies or friends, how dare I enter your house randomly, if you want me to enter, it's better to make it clear."

The guardian spirit was stunned, and suddenly laughed at himself, and cupped his hands at Qin Nan, "Sorry, sorry, I haven't dealt with people for a long time, and I was a little excited for a while, so I made such a move. This old man is abrupt."

"Since the little friend wants to know my identity, I have nothing to hide. My name is Geng Shouchang. As you can see, it is a guardian spirit. This street of soul-hunting is called Lingchou Street because of the invasion of evil spirits. will decay to this point.”

Qin Nan heard him pause, so he immediately said, "Since you are the guardian spirit, it means that your host is still alive, otherwise you would have fallen into a deep sleep, and the invasion of evil spirits alone will make this place decay So far? What about Lingyu? Lingyu won’t give up on this soul-suppressing street, will it?”

The elderly Geng Shouchang smiled, and nodded repeatedly when he heard Qin Nan's words, "That's right, my friend is right."

Qin Nan felt a little baffled, "So? Why don't you continue to explain?"

"Explain, of course explain." Geng Shouchang stroked his long beard and said with a serious expression, "Do you know the kingdom organization?"

Kingdom organization?

Qin Nan's heart skipped a beat, but he nodded calmly.

Geng Shouchang glanced at Qin Nan, and continued, "It's good for my little friend to know. Lingchou Street was invaded by countless evil spirits a year ago. The scale of the invasion has never been seen before. My little friend has never seen evil spirits invade the town. Soul Street, the number of evil spirits will be more than the number of undead in Zhenhun Street."

More evil spirits than undead?Qin Nan didn't believe that such a large-scale evil spirit should have been discovered and wiped out by Lingyu long ago.

"I know that my little friend might not believe it, and even the old man doesn't believe it. Since I became the guardian spirit, the old man has had a total of three soul-suppressing generals, all of whom are from the Geng family. They have been guarding Lingchou Street. I have never seen such a large-scale A big evil spirit has invaded."

Qin Nan inserted Ding Qin into the ground in front of him, and put his hands on the hilt of his sword, "So? Why is the scale of the evil spirit invasion so large? What about the support from the spirit realm?"

Geng Shouchang shook his head and said nothing, without explaining.

"Can't tell me?"

"I hope my little friend will forgive me. I can't tell you the secrets of my Geng family at this time." Geng Shouchang cupped his fists and apologized.

Qin Nan rolled his eyes a few times, looked at Geng Shouchang's whole body, and suddenly asked, "Is the old man in front of you a big man?"

Hearing Qin Nan's words, Geng Shouchang's hunched body suddenly stood upright, his eyes flashed brightly, and he said proudly, "Of course, this old man is from a great man. He served as the chief minister of the Han Dynasty under the command of Emperor Xuan. I was also lucky enough to meet Emperor Wu." His Majesty's lineup."

Speaking of this, Geng Shouchang's face flashed with reverence.

Qin Nan smiled even more in his heart, and said to Geng Shouchang, "Then you shouldn't hide it from me, why don't you tell me everything here?"

Geng Shouchang was confused, and suddenly thought of something, squinting his eyes and staring at Qin Nan, "Your surname is Liu? Could it be that your guardian spirit is His Majesty Xuandi?"

Qin Nan smiled and shook his head.

"Since it is not, it is impossible for the old man to tell you. This is a secret of my Geng family. I hope you will forgive me."

Qin Nan looked at the stubborn Geng Shouchang, and his hands swelled with spiritual energy.

Geng Shouchang was startled, and took a few steps back. He was not good at fighting, and the soul power in his body was already on the verge of exhaustion. How could he fight, but he still used the little soul power in his body to prevent Qin Nan from attacking.

Seeing Geng Shouchang's appearance, Qin Nan said, "Don't worry, I just asked someone to come out. I believe you will tell me everything when you see him."

"Call someone? Guardian Spirit? Who?"

"Your Majesty, Emperor Wu, this person is your courtier. Qin Nan hopes that you can come out and meet him." If Qin Nan hadn't heard Geng Shouchang mentioning the kingdom organization, he would have left long ago. He would not be so curious, and even Let Liu Che come out.

Emperor Wu?Could it be?

Hearing Qin Nan's words, Geng Shouchang raised his head involuntarily, tried his best to stand up straight, and tried his best to look at the figure in the beam of light behind Qin Nan.
