Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 161
(It's the end of the month, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription!)
Got it!
The horse's hooves stepped on the slightly muddy official road, and there was splashing of sewage and yellow mud, which stained the horse's legs and belly.

Some muddy water splashed high and landed on Chen Jin's riding boots, but he didn't seem to care, still closing his eyes and resting his mind.

Last night, he continued to use the technique of communicating with ghosts, which was not a small burden and consumption for Yuanshen.If you don't feel anything in a normal state, the problem is that something is wrong with his internal view.

But Chen Jin thinks it's all worth it.

Before the ghosts become evil spirits, they will retain some human consciousness and memory. In this form, they actually suffer from pain and torture. When they are saved, they are liberated. That's why they confront Chen Jin and Gu Le. You waved your hand and expressed your thanks.

People who were honest and responsible during their lifetime have their own set of deep-rooted codes of conduct. Even after they die, they don't want to fall into the evil way and become evil spirits.

What should be done must be done, otherwise what is the use of learning swords?
Chen Jin also has his own code of conduct, it's as simple as that.

……

After a night of hard work, today's itinerary became easier. Although the road became difficult due to the heavy rain, at least it went smoothly, and entered the destination Yun County before dusk.

This is a fairly large county town, densely populated and bustling.

A group of people delivered the escort goods Yunjin and handed it over to the merchants for inspection and counting. There was no problem, and the delivery was completed.

When they went outside, Huang Zhongheng pulled Nie Feng aside: "Nephew Nie, this trip is over, we want to take a step first, so I will take my leave."

Nie Feng knew what the three of them were thinking, and it was difficult to keep them, so he immediately cupped his hands, "Thank you three uncles."

Huang Zhongheng, Luo and Shi didn't talk nonsense, they got on their horses and left, leaving Yun County as if fleeing, and embarked on the road back.

Out of the city, all three breathed a sigh of relief, but their expressions were different.

Luo Jiazhi suddenly said: "I think those two extraordinary people are both monks. It's a rare opportunity. It would be a pity not to make friends."

Shi Mingsheng sneered and said: "It's really very human, but he acted recklessly, regardless of the consequences, and has no clear relationship with them. Sooner or later, disaster will strike."

Huang Zhongheng stretched out his hand and stroked his beard: "That's right, we all have families, and safety comes first. The current matter involves ghosts and gods, and it's not as simple as killing a thief."

Hearing the word "ghosts and gods", Luo Jiazhi and Shi Mingsheng were afraid to make a sound.

They are people in the rivers and lakes, they are used to licking blood with the tip of a knife, and they are not timid and timid.But when he got older, married a wife and had children, and had a family business, the gangster spirit in the world gradually faded away, and he became less impulsive, and began to look forward and backward when doing things.

Like now, in fact, all three of them want to make friends with Chen Jin and Gu Leyou.

Who wouldn't want to have a great friend with a lot of tricks?

This represents connections and faces.

However, thinking of all the dangers that might come along with it, the three finally chose to retreat and leave it to Nie Feng to socialize.Thinking that after some time passed, if nothing happened, they could still get back online through the Nie family.

This is the real old rivers and lakes, where you can advance and retreat freely.

In contrast, Nie Feng didn't think too much about it. After in-depth communication with Gu Leyou, he really felt "like old friends at first sight", and even confessed to the other party about his delivery of the dark dart.

In the Escort industry, there are "bright darts" and "dark darts".

As the name implies, "bright darts" are naturally placed on the bright side, things that everyone can see and touch; while "dark darts" are hidden objects that are hidden in the dark and unknown.

Those who can become dark darts are of course precious and valuable treasures.

As for how to hide the dark dart and where to put it, it is a delicate matter. Different dart bureaus have different methods.

Nie Feng only spoke about the dark dart because it had been delivered safely, but he didn't elaborate on what it was.

If you don't say it, don't say it, Gu Leyou doesn't have much interest in it, in fact, he guessed it early in the morning.

After the escorts were delivered, Nie Feng didn't want to rush to the escort bureau, but stayed in Yunxian for the night.From his point of view, although the bodyguards did not suffer any losses, but lost a lot of manpower, he couldn't feel happy, and he didn't know how to face his father.

It's not to avoid trouble, but to find an opportunity to vent, which happens to be able to get along well with Gu Leyou and Chen Jin.

……

At night, there is no curfew in Yun County, and the nightlife is very lively, with everything to eat, drink and play.

As the host, Nie Feng couldn't be stingy anymore, and directly opened a private room in the largest Goulan "Pin Yu Guan" in the county.

"I'm not feeling well, so I won't go."

Chen Jin said directly that he was not putting on airs, but that he was really sick and needed to meditate.

Knowing his situation, Gu Leyou only gave a few words of advice, and walked away with Nie Feng shoulder to shoulder and smiling.

This guy has been holding back for a long time, fighting hard, just waiting to put on a strong gun, maybe even a Jingyuan pill has to be knocked out.

Chen Jin ignored him, returned to the inn room after dinner, cleaned up the wooden table, and took out the four treasures of the study.

I am going to write a sacrificial article tonight, and the object of the sacrifice is the souls of the dead who died in the war on that village.

Normally, a priest must go to the scene in order to be targeted and show sincerity.

However, Chen Jin's sacrifice is not a formal one, the main purpose is to sacrifice the distracting thoughts and sorrows in his heart.

"Mind Burning Paper Method"!
"In the age of Aiwei, human life is like an ant..."

Start with a pen and write down all the way, without paying attention to strict format and sentence, just express your heart, write whatever you think, joy, anger, sorrow, joy, play and resentment, you can write it heartily.

To some extent, this method is similar to keeping a diary.

Just decent people who keep diaries?
Moreover, it is impossible to write a diary to visualize all kinds of thoughts and delusions, and then burn them up and burn them.

This is the magical effect of Taoism.

"Shangxiang!"

At the end of the two words, I looked at it again, and it was so eloquent that I wrote thousands of words, which is considered a long article in the sacrificial text.

Half of the content is condolences, and the other half is to make use of the topic to criticize Fang Qiu and criticize the current malaise...

The words are straightforward and can be described as "swearing".

If these words are leaked out, I believe that the inner factory will arrest people immediately.

Without waiting for the ink to dry, Chen Jin folded the paper, this time into the shape of an ingot.

Then he took out a brass incinerator—this stove was specially purchased after Ziwu learned the "Mind Burning Paper Method".

To do a complete set of things, the form is also important.

Light the ingot and put it into the stove.

As the sacrificial culture turned into a pinch of incense, his mood calmed down in vain and became peaceful. All the things he encountered in Zhuangzi had already become a thing of the past.

But it is not forgotten, but has become pure, and no longer breeds distracting thoughts and delusions.

After finishing these, Chen Jin could calmly devote himself to practice and start doing daily homework.

A peaceful night passed.

The next morning, when the sun was high, Gu Leyou and Nie Feng just came back. They didn't see the spring breeze on their faces, but they looked a bit haggard.

After all, that kind of thing not only pays attention to technology, but also pays more attention to physical strength.

Both of them were rushing to vent, so naturally they worked very hard, and it was inevitable that they were overworked.

Obviously, after becoming like-minded people, their relationship has gone a step further, and they can be called "old iron".

Seeing Chen Jin, Gu Leyou was very excited and said: "Scholar, it's a pity that you didn't go. The favorite poem of the head oiran of the Pinyu Pavilion is actually "Butterfly Love Flower". Here, it's that sentence." The belt is getting wider and wider, but I don’t regret it, I am haggard because of Yixiao’, she said that she really wants to get acquainted..."

Speaking of this, I suddenly realized that with Nie Feng present, Chen Jin's identity is not that "beautiful man", so he changed the subject: "According to her, if the author goes in person, it will be considered as worthless." Flowers can kiss their fragrance."

At this time Nie Feng said: "It is said that this word was spread from Jiangzhou, but I have never heard of it before."

When he was in Jiangzhou, he actually seldom went to Goulan and other places for recreation. His family was strictly disciplined, and in recent years, the business of the Escort Agency was not going well.

Last night, I went to Pinyu Pavilion mainly to accompany Gu Leyou. In order to make Brother Dao happy, I sacrificed my life to accompany the gentleman.

This companionship seemed to open up a new world, the backlog of depression in my heart was swept away, and the whole person seemed to have become more mature.

Chen Jin smiled: "What do I think, it's just a poem."

Gu Leyou said awkwardly: "That's true."

However, he was not without regrets in his heart. What he missed most was the time when he and Chen Jin were in Chunhua Xingyulou.

The scene, the reversal, the treatment, and the honor.

If I went with Chen Jin last night, I would be shocked, I don't know how refreshing it is, at least, the attitude of the girl's service is much more warm and considerate.But Chen Jin was not there, and his identity could not be revealed, which made the Taoist feel oppressed but unable to pretend.

After relaxing, set off for Jiangzhou.

Without escorts, without a carriage, three riders and three riders, traveling lightly, the speed of going back will be much faster.If you hurry up, you can do it in one day and one night.

But it's nothing urgent, you don't have to rush at night, just walk normally.

It was evening again, and according to the itinerary, he would be able to enter Jiangzhou City at noon tomorrow at the most.

Riding on the horse, Nie Feng looked around and said, "I remember there was a long pavilion nearby, why is it gone?"

In the Central Plains area, the development is prosperous. There are many pavilions on both sides of the official road. There is a saying of "five miles of short pavilions, ten miles of long pavilions". These pavilions are used for pedestrians to rest or even stay overnight. .

However, due to the change of dynasties, the flames of war spread, the people suffered disasters, and many infrastructures were destroyed.Although the situation is relatively stable now, it is not easy for many things to return to normal. At least it will take several years of recuperation.

If you can't find a pavilion, and there are no villages nearby, you can only sleep in the wilderness.

The wilderness often means danger, especially in this season, maybe it will rain at night, so there is nowhere to hide.

Undecided for a while, Nie Feng looked at Gu Leyou as if asking for advice, and Gu Leyou looked at Chen Jin habitually.

Chen Jin pointed to the hill on the right: "Let's go over there, see if there is any suitable place, and go hunting by the way."

Hearing hunting, Gu Leyou clapped his hands and applauded: "Let's go."

Leaving the official road, the road quickly became rough and difficult to ride. It was difficult to ride a horse, so I dismounted and led the horse.

"what?"

Nie Feng's sharp eyes seemed to have discovered something, he strode forward and picked up something from the bushes, his face was full of surprise.

It was an iron gall, black and bright, slippery, like an egg.

Gu Leyou's eyes fixed, and he recognized it: "Isn't this the iron guts that Senior Huang never leaves his hands?"

Nie Feng said: "Yes, that's absolutely right. But what happened, why did this thing get left here?"

People in the rivers and lakes, who have special weapons, basically regard this weapon as their lifeline.As the saying goes, "Where the sword is with the man, the man with the sword is dead." In fact, it does not only refer to swordsmen, it is also applicable to swordsmen, or other knights.

Huang Zhongheng was nicknamed "Iron Gallbladder Master", and a pair of iron gallbladders in his palm was his signature, but now he lost one here, obviously, something happened to him.

If something happened to Huang Zhongheng, what about Luo Jiazhi and Shi Mingsheng who were traveling with him?
Thinking of this, Nie Feng immediately became anxious, quickly threw off his legs, and explored around to see if he found anything else.

Gu Leyou also helped to find it.

Just searched around and found nothing.Maybe there were clues left, but after more than a day, the traces have been destroyed and can't be found.

Gu Leyou said in a deep voice: "There is no blood, there should be no fierce fighting."

Nie Feng pondered and said: "The martial arts of the three uncles can't be said to be very good, but they are considered top-notch. It will not be easy for idle bandits to take them down."

Gu Leyou asked: "Are you planning to prescribe medicine?"

"They have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and they have rich experience. They are out-and-out old rivers and lakes, and they will not be so easy to follow others."

"Well, in this case, it might be bumping into a mountain elf and a wild monster."

Hearing this, Nie Feng shuddered all over, thinking that it's not that bad luck...

But thinking about it carefully, this possibility is the highest.

And I couldn't help thinking: Could it be that the rampant gods came to the door?

Ghosts and gods, ghosts and gods, ghosts and gods are unpredictable, they want to stand up for Lao Dan, and they have their own ways.

It doesn't make sense, even if it is a rampant god, it should go to Gu Leyou and Chen Jin first, why would it go to Huang Zhongheng and the others?

There is also a possibility that Huang Zhongheng and the others were in a hurry to return to Jiangzhou. When they came here, they missed Sutou, and then encountered the mountain spirits and wild monsters entrenched here. They were finally captured by the opponent. Know.

Gu Leyou obviously also thought of this, and his face suddenly became serious: "You said that we happened to come here too, is it purely a coincidence? Or was it deliberately led?"

"Deliberately guide?"

Nie Feng was stunned, unable to understand: "But we have never had any contact with outsiders during this journey, how can we guide them?"

Gu Leyou smiled: "You don't know about this. Some mountain spirits and wild monsters are evil and evil. They are good at manipulating the soul, and they can affect your mood unconsciously. know, even your will..."

Speaking of this, my heart trembled.

What he said was not empty words, but real things, just the premise of what happened, mostly because the entrants were weak in spirit and not strong enough in willpower, so they were bewitched by the fascination.

But now, with Chen Jin around, could it be that he couldn't resist with his cultivation?

If this is the case, then what a powerful existence the other party will be...

Gu Leyou raised his head to look at the hills in the twilight. It seemed that the vegetation was full of soldiers, and everything was ferocious. Even the mountain wind that blew over seemed to have become bitingly cold.
