ask the mirror

Chapter 49

Yu Ci couldn't say that he was disgusted with Cheng Rong and even Wanlingmen's attitude.After more than ten years of wandering in the world, he has long understood that as long as he lives in the world, this kind of exchange of interests is inevitable. In fact, this is the most conventional way of communication between people. Friends, etc., are extremely rare, but they are also more precious because of their rarity.

Although Cheng Rong is not a competent lobbyist, he is very self-aware.He knew that it would be unrealistic for him to achieve his goal when he met Yu Ci for the first time, so he seized the "Ghost Xianghua" given to him by Yu Ci, and strongly invited Yu Ci to visit Wanlingmen's residence. When the invitation failed, he handed over the contact information logically, at least ensuring the first-line contact between the two parties.

After staying in Zhixin Temple for the past few days, Yu Ci knew that the so-called "special authority" was not as simple as Wanlingmen imagined.Various factors are intertwined in it, and it is difficult to know the details unless you specifically ask Yu Zhou Laodao to inquire.But since Wanlingmen intends to do so, Yu Ci is also happy to relax:

For things like managing a relationship that take a long time to bear fruit, just leave it to the other party to worry about.He has grasped the most critical chain of interests, should he worry about the following things?

Finally, Cheng Rong bid farewell to Yu Ci with urgency and regret, and of course also took away the little girl who was still not convinced.

Yu Ci continued his journey of searching for 'drugs'. For others, what happened today may be the focus of the next period of time, but for him, it was just an episode, a part of his busy work. A little embellishment, that's all.

Time kept flowing, Yu Ci's search area was expanding, but his harvest was getting less and less. When he accumulated good deeds to two hundred and four, his progress completely stagnated.

Then, the first snow of the winter fell.

The sun had already set on the other side of the mountain, Yu Ci was standing in a small valley about sixty miles away from the Tianrift Valley, watching the snowy stream of Hanshan passing through the valley.This is actually the old place where he stopped the 'medicine' pickers for questioning when he first returned to the Rift Valley, and in the lower reaches of the stream, there was another group of 'medicine' pickers returning along the stream.

This group of people suddenly saw such a handsome and handsome Taoist priest as Yu Ci standing upstream, the three No. 40 people over there were startled, there was no chance encounter on the road, and the atmosphere was rather tense.

Yu Ci expressed his understanding.

Right now, it is time to finish half a year's work and go home for the New Year. The medicine pickers who usually linger in the Tianrift Valley have stopped working, packed their luggage, called on friends, and began to return home one after another.At the same time, now is also the most chaotic time.

Collecting aspengrass is always a dead end business.It can no longer be obtained from the wild, nor from others.In this season, stealing, robbing, abducting, cheating and all other bad methods have room to be used, and the order that is already bad enough on weekdays will be corrupted to a level that ordinary people can hardly imagine.From the eyes of the 'medicine' pickers, this handsome Taoist priest deliberately blocked the road, and his intentions for coming were quite bad.

In fact, Yu Ci really came for them.

Seeing the appearances of the 'medicine' pickers all facing the enemy, Yu Ci didn't say anything, his eyes went from left to right, as if he glanced casually, but the 'medicine' pickers who came into his line of sight, had chest pains. As if being punched hard, I couldn't breathe for a while, and the crowd was 'turmoil'.He heard someone inside whispering titles like "Shangxian", so far, the goal has been achieved.

The situation looks weird and weird, but it is just the use of divine will.This is not Yu Ci's own invention. Jin Huan intended to overwhelm others with power when he was watching the mind, and he could show the courage of "the sun is setting and the western mountains are still not enough, and the sky will fall together" with one look, which is better than Yu Ci. too much.

But this level is enough, at least enough to bring up a not-so-good memory.

Among the group of 'medicine' pickers, half of the characters' expressions changed drastically, and some were timid and reacted to fleeing backwards, but they were grabbed by their clear-headed companions, and finally escaped on the spot. The battalion was bombed.

The atmosphere became extraordinarily weird.

Yu Ci's original intention was to stop the way to collect news about the 'medicinal' herbs in the Tianrift Valley, and he was also surprised to see this situation.He didn't deliberately distinguish the identities of these people in the picture of the gods before, and now he glanced at their faces, and suddenly realized:

"You are……"

Embarrassment and fear appeared on many faces.But there was a person in the front row of the team, but with an extremely fast reaction speed, he bent his knees and knelt down on the cold and hard sand by the stream:

"Shangxian Mingjian, now we are no longer doing the original business!"

This action reminded a lot of people, the team of No. 40 of three fell to their knees, and they all swore to the sky, saying that they had changed their past, and took the 'medicine' honestly, and never did any harm. thing.The medicine pickers who didn't kneel down were at first dazed, then suspicious, and at the end they didn't know where to put their hands and feet, so they simply knelt down along with the crowd.

Yu Ci could see clearly that half of the people who pulled out this time were the scammers from the ruined temple in the barren hills.The one in the front kneels first, isn't that the very active black-faced guy?

He glanced over the heads of the crowd, and with almost no effort, he saw Taoist Xuanqing who was trying to shrink into the crowd. This person didn't even dare to lift his head, and his body was still shaking.

Yu Ci frowned, and said: "Get up, just in time, I have something to ask you."

Hearing what he said, those genuine or half-way monks who picked medicines stood up one after another after hesitating for a while.No one is a fool, so the eyes of some people looking at the companions next to them changed a little, but the whole team was silent.

Yu Ci found it interesting, and asked casually: "Do you really stop doing robbery and cheating?"

Dozens of people shook their heads, but many of them could not hide their guilty conscience.

Yu Ci couldn't help laughing.

It was getting late, and a bonfire was lit in the camp, Yu Ci naturally sat in the main seat, and let the surrounding flattery and flattery be like a 'tide', but he also stood still.Gradually, those flattery words weakened, and the people in the Xuanqing line in the past gradually stopped talking, and the scene turned cold for a while.

At this time, Yu Ci asked about the growth of the 'medicine' materials under the nearby Tianrift Valley. Xuanqing's group of robbers and cheaters would not be able to answer these questions, only a few experienced 'medicine' pickers among the genuine ones Only a few old experts can answer a few sentences.

But gradually, when the 'medicine' pickers saw that Yu Ci had a pretty good temper and was only interested in 'medicine' materials, they became more courageous.Some young people also started to speak. Compared with the old "medicine" workers who were cautious in their words, they must have something to say, and the young people had more hearsay, and all the good and bad news were poured out.

If someone else changed, he would definitely attract suspicion, but Yu Ci was different. He had a bronze mirror that illuminated the gods. After scanning a large area, he could tell the truth of the rumors at a glance, and he was not afraid of wasting time. Instead, he had an extra chance.Encouraged by his acquiescent attitude, even Xuanqing's gang began to 'cut in', the knowledge of these people is another level, after more than an hour, Yu Ci really found the news of two 'medicine' materials , together there are six or seven skills, which can be regarded as a small gain.

There was a heated chat here, while that Xuan Qing timidly hid aside, keeping silent all the time, so silent that others almost remembered his existence.When everyone was discussing 'medicine' materials the most heatedly, he made an excuse, bent down and retreated, hiding in the surrounding dark forest.When he was far away, he gritted his teeth and ran wildly. After going out for more than ten miles, he finally took a breath.

"Let's have fun, let's have fun, let your mother be happy for a while, and soon you will cry..."

While muttering, Xuanqing took out the messenger talisman crushed in his sleeve and threw it on the ground.His panting has not stopped, not because of fatigue, but because of extreme tension.Fortunately, it should be safe now. He took a few more breaths, supported the tree trunk and stood up straight, ready to identify the direction and run a little further.

At this moment, a beam of light blue light lit up in front of his eyes.

In an instant, Xuan Qing's whole body was stiff, only his eyes could barely move.A few feet away from him, a light source suddenly rose, like a green leather lantern, and the cool light spread out, reflecting the familiar figure beside him.

"Why did you make me cry?" Under the blue light, Yu Ci spoke softly.

"You...how did you catch up?"

Xuan Qing's eyeballs were almost protruding, he backed up unconsciously, and after only two steps, he bumped into the tree trunk, unable to advance or retreat.

"You are only allowed to harm me, and I am not allowed to get it back?"

Yu Ci stood on the spot with his hands behind his back: "Listen to what Zheng Da said, you recognized Lu Ding from Bairi Mansion as your godfather, so when you first met, the summoning talisman you activated was to notify him?"

Xuan Qing had no idea when that bastard Heizi sold him out, let alone how Yu Ci discovered his extremely secretive actions.Now, his brain is frozen, and his body is like falling into an ice cave, from the inside to the outside, there is no heat at all.

In the end, there was only one thought in his mind: "You knew it earlier, why didn't you escape?"

"Why should I run away?"

Yu Ci grinned, his snow-white teeth gleaming blue, and said coldly: "Is it still fun for me to be wanted on the list for no reason? I don't want justice for myself, and it's really embarrassing." Did they lay the blame on me?"

Xuan Qing was almost choked to death by his own saliva, at this moment, he finally understood that his and Yu Ci's thinking circuits were completely different.This lunatic who ignores the majesty of the Bairi Mansion is absolutely capable of anything!

At this moment, his first reaction was to start begging for mercy, but at this moment, he remembered the extremely humiliating scene in the ruined temple, and the eyes that drove him mad from behind for nearly a year .

As soon as the words came to his lips, they froze.

In the end, he choked, and drew out his long sword, the tip of which trembled violently, but pointed at the figure in front after all.Yu Ci watched coldly and stopped talking.

Probably Yu Ci's attitude stimulated a certain nerve in him, Xuan Qing screamed fiercely: "You are finished, the brigade of the White Sun Mansion will kill you in a blink of an eye, you will definitely not be able to escape..."

"The brigade you mentioned, do you mean this?"

Yu Ci's words made Xuan Qing's words choke in his throat.At this time, the "green leather lantern" floated to the front, with a dense green light flowing.

As they got closer, Xuanqing realized that those were definitely not lanterns, they were mountains, rivers, wind passing through the jungle, birds and beasts coming and going!As the light and shadow changed, he saw that there were nine figures in it, like nine ridiculous lice, scrambling through the mountains that were only a foot high, and heading towards the camp in the valley separated by a mountain top. The people, the people in there...

Xuan Qing was completely dumbfounded.
