Chapter 172 The mystery of moving the village

The next day, Jiang Fuyuan stuffed a dozen talisman seals into his baggage, planning to take Xiaopang and Steamed Bun to experience the shrinking technique Zhai Jinzu said later, when Zhong Liefeng came to Ke's house.

"Little Phoenix, it seems that I will go back to Kejia Village with you this time."

Jiang Fuyuan chuckled: "We'll go back as soon as we go, it won't take too long."

Although not seeing each other for one day is like three autumns apart, her wife does not have to be so clingy. With magic like shrinking to an inch, the two of them will not be apart for more than ten autumns.

Zhong Lianfeng shook his head: "It was the Taoist palace's spy who sent the news that Gu Qing was leading a group of inner disciples on a far journey. It is said that the destination is Kejia Village."

"They also want to go to Kejia Village?" Jiang Fuyuan put down the talisman in his hand and asked doubtfully, "But Kejia Village is thousands of miles away from Jingzhou and is just an ordinary remote mountain village. Why do they have to go all the way?"

"I don't know, but His Highness Prince Duan is worried that their operation may be related to the White Lotus Cult."

Jiang Fuyuan frowned. A little-known place like Kejiacun would be targeted by a shameless cult. She had been in Kejiacun for so long, and she had been to every place in the village. There was nothing special about it. .

What do the shameless cult and Gu Qing, the old cow nose, see in Kejiacun?
And the mountain god the old village chief mentioned, could it be a coincidence?
No matter how many doubts they have in their hearts, the truth of everything can still be solved only in Kejiacun.This time Zhong Lianfeng was acting alone, and there were no soldiers following him. Jiang Fuyuan simply took him with him and borrowed Zhai Huai's Shrinking Earth Technique.

At the same time, Xin Wangfu.

A carriage quietly set off from the side door of the palace to the southeast. Chi Xinsu and Bai Muxing sat on the carriage, keeping silence to each other.

It wasn't until the carriage passed the Jingzhou City Gate and entered the official road that Chi Xinsu looked out at the surrounding movements and asked, "Are you sure that is the place you are looking for?"

Bai Muxing nodded: "Qingguo's Dingxing Pearl is infallible. The secret technique is called Kun Xing. It points to the south. It bends and bends in an orderly manner. It divides and joins the ridges. It is called a dragon when it moves and stops."

"The true dragon's veins must be in the direction pointed by the fixed star bead."

Chi Xinsu hummed, looked away, and frowned deeply.

Thinking of the feeling when he controlled the ghost for the first time yesterday, he always had a nauseating feeling in his heart, like pinching a cold and slippery worm in his hand, and there was always the illusion that mucus was still covering his palm.

According to Bai Muxing, this is a normal manifestation of controlling ghosts, because ghosts contain strong resentment, and if they are controlled by humans, they will inevitably suffer from the backlash of some Yin Qi, so she is more willing to drive refined ghosts.

Seeing that his expression was not good, Bai Muxing comforted him with a smile: "Your Highness, you still feel unwell? The road is high and the road is long. Even if there is a spell, it will take at least four or five days to get there. Why don't I take advantage of this time to practice the art of refining ghosts?" I will teach you, Your Highness, so that you can experience the joy of controlling ghosts earlier."

Hearing what she said, Chi Xinsu glanced at her quickly from top to bottom, looking slightly hesitant.

The only help he can provide her is a bowl of his own blood. Just a bowl of blood can make her give everything he has?She had already taught herself the art of controlling ghosts before, which was considered as fulfilling her original promise. Why did she have to teach him the method of refining ghosts again...

Is this just an excuse? Bai Muxing's ultimate goal is not his blood, but the flesh and blood around him?
After all, if you want to awaken the true dragon, human sacrifice with skin and bones is more direct than blood sacrifice.

Chi Xinsu will never doubt anyone except Jiang Fuyuan in his life. The words and deeds of anyone else will put a question mark in his heart.

This was a life-saving habit he had developed since he was a child. If he hadn't been more suspicious of people, I'm afraid he wouldn't have survived to adulthood.

Thinking like this, Chi Xinsu looked a little more wary when he looked at Bai Muxing.

"Your Highness knows that I never allow false promises." Bai Muxing pretended not to understand what he was thinking, but still smiled gently.

After getting in touch with Chi Xinsu during this time, she knew that he was simply another version of herself in the world. For people like them, no matter how much they talk, it is useless. Only facts can convince them.

Probably because of self-pity when looking in the mirror, people always have a different sense of closeness to another creature that is very similar to themselves. The same is true for Bai Muxing towards Chi Xinsu.They are the same kind of people, and only she understands him best.

For this reason, Bai Muxing was willing to teach Chi Xinsu some more secret skills in addition to the transaction. The reason was that there were too many enemies in the world, and there were too many people who failed them, so she was willing to give him more escape routes.

After all, Zhai Huai's talent was a bit unreliable. After Jiang Fuyuan and others' eyesight dimmed, they found themselves landing in a completely unfamiliar wilderness.

After they finally found a living person and asked for directions, they found out that they were at the foot of Fang Mountain, more than 100 miles away from Kejia Village.

Fortunately, there was a small town not far from Fangshan. After a few nights of rest in the town's inn, they hired a carriage to go to Kejia Village.

Hearing the name of Kejiacun, the coachman couldn't help but look at them a few more times and said, "Are you going back to register your house and fields? It's so leisurely to take a cat with you on such a long journey."

Jiang Fuyuan asked in confusion: "What house and land are you registering?"

The coachman smiled and replied: "Don't all the villages in that area have to be moved? It is said that the government of the state directly sent people to notify them. As long as all the relocated families have registered their houses and fields and are willing to move, they can change states. It’s a street shop in my house!”

"Well, if only I were a person from those villages, then I don't have to do anything now, I just wait to go to the state capital to live the good life of the city people."

Jiang Fuyuan was stunned and turned to look at Zhai Jinzu.

Zhai Jinzu was also dumbfounded. Why move the village?Why hasn't he heard of it?

Zhong Lianfeng was the calmest. He asked the driver: "When did this happen? Shouldn't such a big thing as relocating a village need to be approved at all levels, and then a notice should be posted to notify the township before it can be implemented?"

"What kind of announcement are you posting?" The driver swung his horsewhip, urging the lazy horses to move on. "There are a few people who are digging in the dirt who know how to read. They don't just say it verbally, but just follow it. That’s it.”

"I heard that your Kejia Village is not willing to move. Your village chief didn't notify you villagers, right? Hehe, but there are a few families who have already received the letter and have rushed to the state capital to sign for the replacement of their shops."

The coachman spoke enthusiastically, which made several people in the car look at each other. They didn't expect that they would get such exciting news as soon as they came back.

But why does the state government require the entire Kejia Village to be relocated?There is no natural disaster or war, so sudden migration of people is not a good thing.

Zhong Lianfeng pondered for a long time and didn't understand the reason. He could only look at the two of them and whispered: "We'll talk about it later."

The carriage set off in the morning and arrived at Kejia Village in the evening.

After paying the fare at the entrance of the village and watching the coachman drive away with his whip, Jiang Fuyuan and others entered the village silently.

It was dusk, and the village was very quiet. There was no sound at all from the house that usually had smoke from the cooking pots. It was obvious at a glance that there was no one in the house.

Walking to the home where he had lived for more than 20 years, Zhong Liefeng stood outside the courtyard, looking at these familiar and unfamiliar houses, and said to Jiang Fuyuan: "It seems they have moved away."

Jiang Fuyuan pursed her lips: "They must be the first to move to a street shop in the state capital."

She squeezed Zhong Lianfeng's hand under his sleeve and asked, "Want to go in and take a look?"

Zhong Lianfeng shook his head: "We will wait until the matter with the village chief's family is resolved."

"The village chief's house is right in front."
