Chapter 109 The City God Arrives

"how do I say this?"

Li Yuanjin pulled Su Heng aside and whispered:

"I have heard a little bit about the Ding family. It is said that there are six ghosts looking for a replacement, so it is impossible to escape this disaster. Those six ghosts appear every three years, and the demons destroy the world. Only after finding a replacement person can one of them be replaced. . It reappeared for another three years, and it happened again and again. It has been a hundred years now, and the resentment is so overwhelming that ordinary soldiers can do nothing. Alas, everyone has his own destiny, and this is the fate of the boy from the Ding family. Why did the Taoist priest take his life for him! "

Su Heng looked sideways: "How do you, a cloth seller, know so much?"

"Hehe, I'm a very particular person when doing business. I always choose an auspicious day when I go out. Every time I go to a place, I first find out where I can go and where I can't go."

"Then how about letting the rampant soldiers catch you?"

"Man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation..."

"Thank you for reminding."

Su Heng was hesitant to say goodbye to Li Yuanjin. This land was unreasonable and there was no reason to do such a dangerous thing to him.

But I wanted to shirk it, but I already agreed.

After thinking about it, I thought that what Li Yuanjin said was not necessarily accurate, so he ran out of the city, found the two rampant soldiers, and asked what happened.

"Taoist Priest, those six ghosts are very powerful, so let's forget about it. The fake scholar is right, the boy from the Ding family should have such a calamity in his fate."

Su Heng looked at the expressions of the rampant soldiers and saw no signs of fear, but more of laziness, so he said something to provoke them:

"Is it possible that even five powerful soldiers and horses can't do anything to defeat six ghosts?"

Hearing this, Wang Bing retorted loudly:

"Are you kidding me? There are hundreds of brothers in our barracks. Even if they were trampled, they would be trampled to the ground by six ghosts!"

"In that case, how about you call all the brothers to follow me to the south of the city to capture the six ghosts?"

"This... I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

The implication is that although Su Heng has meritorious deeds, without the city god's military talisman, he cannot mobilize the five rampant troops.

There was no time to go through the process now. Su Heng had an idea and shouted sharply:

"I didn't expect you to be such a treacherous and treacherous soldier!"

During his lifetime, Mang Bing was a arrogant and fierce general who did not know etiquette, but he valued love and justice. When he was scolded, he immediately jumped:

"Taoist Master, don't make any nonsense. How can we betray our trust?"

"If you let go earlier, who said you will repay your kindness in the future?"

The soldiers were confused and said that they would come tomorrow, but this was less than two sticks of incense.

Seeing the hesitation of the rampaging soldiers, Su Heng continued to persuade: "Although I don't have the military talisman, I can perform the duties of the city god on my behalf. Do I order you to capture the six ghosts and bring them to justice?"

"Yes……"

"Not only did you fail to obey the order, but you left your post without permission and went out of the city to tease innocent people. What will happen if the city god returns?"

"what……"

Su Heng struck while the iron was hot: "There is only one way to make up for the mistake at the moment, which is to follow me to capture the Six Ghosts, go or not!"

Rambing thought about it and finally made up his mind: "You can go, but the brothers haven't eaten for several days. They are hungry and exhausted. How can we catch ghosts?"

The matter of having a meal couldn't be easier to handle.

"Go and call all the brothers. I will take care of the food as many as you have."

"it is good!"

Su Heng was waiting at the gate of the city. Not long after, a dark wind suddenly blew from the southwest, and a black and heavy group of five soldiers and horses came, each holding a sword, gun, and stick, with teeth and claws. Looking at the past, there were as many as a hundred people!

Good guy, a company came directly!

The leading general was sitting on a tall horse and shouted: "Taoist priest, here are the drinks and food! Serve them quickly!"

"General, don't be in a hurry, just wait here for a moment. I'll be back as soon as I go..."

Su Heng hurriedly went to the city, asked for directions, found the Ding family, and met Mr. Ding.

"Old man, I am Xuan Heng of the Maoshan sect. I came here on the orders of the City God to cast a spell to rescue the young master. I need you to pay for it. Go to a nearby inn to buy ten tables of good wine and food, and hold a banquet at the gate of the city to reward all the soldiers. Soldiers Eat and drink enough so that you can follow me on my journey.”

When Mr. Ding heard that his son was saved, he didn't care whether it was true or not. He quickly followed the instructions, but he couldn't get so much money at the moment, so he was so worried that he wanted to sell the house deed on the spot.

"Damn it, why do I want to take a concubine?"

It's true that money is only spent when it is used.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ding. Take the money and leave first. I will take care of the rest."

"Good good!"

The two rushed to Tongfu Inn. Su Heng asked Master Ding to just go in, but he walked into the silk shop next to it.

"Taoist priest, we meet again." Li Yuanjin had just prepared the goods and was about to leave the city for business.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to leave the city today."

"Why?"

"There are hundreds of rampant soldiers gathered outside the city. How do you escape?"

"Ah! This batch of my goods must be delivered to Yizhuang tomorrow. If I miss the appointment, I'm afraid I will lose all the money I have saved over the years. Please save me, Taoist Priest!"

"Don't be nervous, I can come up with a clever plan." Su Heng told Li Yuanjin and went to the inn next door to help Mr. Ding pay for the remaining drinks. After rewarding the generals, he would naturally be able to leave the city.

Li Yuanjin was not a confused person. After a little thought, he understood that Taoist Xuanheng was borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha.

However, thinking that he still owed a favor and that defeating the six ghosts was considered a meritorious deed, he gritted his teeth and agreed.

After half a stick of incense, Su Heng went outside the city, burned incense, prayed, held a banquet, and rewarded the five mighty soldiers.

The five rampant soldiers and horses were very happy after eating and drinking, and they were shouting that they would follow Su Heng to kill the six ghosts in the south of the city.

...    But it was said that the young ghost, one of the six ghosts in the south of the city, had waited for eighteen years to finally obtain Ding Yue's soul. In a little while, he would transcend reincarnation and regain his freedom.

The other tall, short, fat and thin old ghosts pretended to congratulate, but in their hearts they were extremely jealous. After all, the five ghosts were all tricked by the young ghost, how could they not hate them?

The young ghost saw through the thoughts of the other five ghosts and said: "I was tricked back then, but now I have earned enough money for five people to find relief. If you don't want to harm others, you can stay with each other year after year until the end of the world."

As he spoke, Gao Gui stretched his neck and saw a person running towards him from a distance. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of him.

"Are you the Six Ghosts in the South of the City?"

"Yes, I don't know what your job is?"

The six people said in unison, their voices varying in pitch and pitch, making them particularly harsh.

"Ding Yue's soul is in your hands!"

"So what?"

"I obey the city god's order to retrieve Ding Yue's soul and hand it over as soon as possible!"

"We six ghosts are the destiny of heaven and earth. We replace each other every three years, and we are replaced by a transcendent being. We go around and over again. They are all determined. Who is the city god?"

"Speak wild words!"

The two sides had disagreements and struggled with each other.

Six ghosts surrounded Su Heng in the middle. The tall ghost kicked the person, the short ghost jumped on the ground and grabbed his feet, the fat ghost rolled the ball and hit the person, the thin ghost turned into a long stick to tie the person, the old ghost breathed out thick black smoke, and the young ghost spewed out thick black smoke. Green will-o'-the-wisp.

Su Heng, holding a hair sword and protecting his body with golden light, used the Maoshan Divine Fist to parry from all directions. For a while, he was inextricably linked with the six ghosts.

"This wild Taoist priest has average magic power, but he has merit and body protection. We can't do anything to him separately, so we should attack him together!"

The young ghost ordered that the short ghost be the body, the fat ghost be the belly, the tall ghost be the legs, the thin ghost be the two tentacles, the young ghost be the head, and the old ghost be the tumor on the back, constantly spitting out poisonous black smoke.

The six ghosts merged into one, their aura was terrifying, and their power increased several times. After several attacks, Su Heng was unable to resist and quickly distanced himself.

"Taoist priest, you know how powerful our six ghosts are!"

"You take advantage of the large number of ghosts to bully the small number of people, so you have the ability to fight in a one-on-one fight!"

"Heh, wouldn't it be a one-on-one challenge for the six of us to pick one of you?"

"Have you all heard this? If a group of people chooses one person, it is also a one-on-one challenge! Come on to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a black mass of troops and horses came rushing towards them from a distance, each shouting and shouting, murderous and extremely excited.

It turns out that everyone likes group fights!

The six ghosts had never seen this battle before. They were so frightened that they threw away their armor and turned around to run away. Unexpectedly, they were blocked by Su Heng.

In the blink of an eye, five rampant soldiers and horses surrounded the six ghosts. The weapons in their hands were dragged around on the ground, glowing coldly.

The six ghosts were again divided into tall, short, fat, thin, old and young. Except for the young ghost, all the ghosts knelt down and begged for mercy.

"This Ding Yue's soul, do you want to hand it over or not!"

"To hand it over or not to hand it over!"

Five rampant soldiers and horses echoed.

The young ghost was trembling all over, but he said fiercely: "I have suffered for eighteen years, and I am about to be released. How can I fail in my efforts! Why didn't you come to save me earlier or later, but you only came when it was my turn! I'm so good Hate it!"

"You are so hateful! You are the leader of the six ghosts, and you have the ability to break the destiny. You just don't want to suffer eighteen years and want to vent it on the latter!"

"So what! Why am I the only one who suffers in the end! Why!" The young ghost's eyes were about to burst, so he simply gave it a try and forcefully swallowed Ding Yue's soul into his belly, intending to burn both jade and stone.

"Forefathers planted trees and others will enjoy the shade. There has to be someone who plants the trees. Since you don't want to plant them, just leave it to me! Not willing to do it? You'll be willing to die again!"

Su Heng stopped talking nonsense and struck the young ghost between the eyebrows with a sword. The young ghost was wiped out on the spot, while Ding Yue's soul slowly fell into his palm.

"The young ghost has been killed. You can take the other five ghosts to the City God's Temple to receive their reward. I will be there soon..."

Su Heng got the soul and rushed to Ding's house without stopping. At this time, Ding Yue was lying on the bed, her face pale and breathless.

Su Heng opened his palm and put it into his mouth. After a while, Ding Yue woke up in a daze.

Mr. Ding couldn't help being happy and was about to kneel down to thank Taoist Xuanheng. Unexpectedly, Su Heng had already finished his work and left.

"Huh -" Unknowingly, it was almost dusk, and Su Heng, who had been busy all day, finally had a chance to take a breath.

Next, I will resurrect my life with the land. I wonder what kind of gratitude I will receive? Thinking of this, Su Heng was vaguely looking forward to it, and couldn't help but speed up his steps.

However, before they arrived at the City God's Temple, they heard "crying for help" and the people in the city fled one after another. It seemed that there was a big trouble ahead.

Su Heng stepped forward to take a look, and his scalp went numb immediately. It turned out that five powerful troops entered the city, and the team gradually lost control, and then they started looting along the street!

These five rampant soldiers are inherently fierce soldiers. If the mage recruits them carefully, there is a risk of being killed.

"Oops!"

If there were only one or two, Su Heng would still have some ideas. How could a company of soldiers and horses be dispatched without military symbols?

At the critical moment, thunder suddenly rolled, strong winds blew, and a cloud came from the sky. There were thousands of troops and horses on the cloud, flags were flying, and there were soldiers beating drums, with a terrifying momentum.

"The City God is back!"

The five rampant soldiers and horses who were making trouble one second were all kneeling on the ground, trembling and not daring to raise their heads the next second.

The clouds slowly fell, and there was a general in the army. The breeze was strong, and he closed his eyes to rest. Su Heng wanted to see his face, but was blown away by the wind. When he wiped his eyes and prepared to take a closer look, it was He Lingzi's big face. Come forward.

"Fellow Taoist, are you back?"

 Thanks to Yufeng Youth for the reward~Thank you for everyone’s monthly recommendation and support~I’ve grown a little longer today!
