My enemies became my companions

Chapter 541 What a coincidence

Chapter 541 What a coincidence (two in one)

All the way to Dragon and Tiger.

There was no need to wait any longer along the way, so Chen Yi and his party headed straight to Longhu Mountain.

Chu Yiyuan, who had received the great plan, was eager to follow Chen Yi, fearing that Chen Yi would be dissatisfied. When they just arrived at an unknown county town to rest, he asked the waiter about the situation and then took Chen Yi to the red-light district and wine alley.

"Master Qin, I have asked around, and everyone says Fengfangyuan is a good place. The girls there are all clean and considerate, and they are good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting. Even if you don't want to have fun, it's good to relax and take a rest."

Chen Yi was about to leave when he saw a gaze fixed on him from behind.

Of course it was Yin Tingxue.

The little fox stared at her with a frown on her face. Her look was not as frightening as Zhou Yitang's, but the girl's gaze could not help but make people feel guilty.

But after Chen Yi hesitated for a moment, he said, he has always been unwilling to fulfill his wishes easily, you don't want to do this but you insist on doing it, he grinned and glanced at her, what can you do to me?

Yin Tingxue lowered her brows and only glanced at Donggong Ruoshu.

So the stupid girl floated up to him and looked at him with curiosity.

Chen Yi's smile suddenly faded and he immediately didn't want to go anymore.

Just imagine, when the curtains are filled with fragrance and the night is full of spring, a pale green face appears beside the bed, watching with relish and commenting...

It just scares people.

Besides, Chen Yi rarely went to brothels, let alone sought pleasure there. He still respected himself very much.

"Forget it, forget it. It's a bad time, and this is a small place... I'm afraid it won't be a good experience." Chen Yi waved his hand to refuse.

Chu Yiyuan was about to persuade him again, but Chen Yi pointed at the hemp clothes on his body and said, "I'm afraid I'll let my deceased wife down."

Now, in order to avoid being targeted, Chen Yi put the girl beside him into a coffin, disguised himself as a traveler attending his wife's funeral, dressed in mourning clothes, and walked with a cane. It is not appropriate to go out and look for prostitutes blatantly. Having said this, Chu Yiyuan could only nod.

But this is not the solution...

Before Chu Yiyuan could organize his words, Chen Yi packed up his things and went upstairs.

Longhu Mountain is not far away. Everything we see along the way is much quieter than in Huguang, like the calm before the storm. It must be said that Su Hongtao's peace with the White Lotus Sect did retain a bit of prosperity for Huguang, but the price was Jiangxi.

The Chu people love ghosts and gods. Jiangxi, as the tail of Chu, has many more statues of ghosts and gods along the way than Huguang. If you just turn a street, you will find that they are dedicated to ghosts and gods. People are always talking about "Bodhisattva" and "immortals". In addition, there are all kinds of Taoist robes and monk's clothes at the Longhu Mountain Heroes Conference. He is not very conspicuous in his mourning clothes.

Apart from…….
When Chen Yi turned his head, he saw that pale face staring at him.

"Miss Donggong..." Chen Yi was half helpless and half speechless, "You don't have to float around like this."

"Why?" Donggong Ruoshu twisted his body and asked, "Isn't it fun?"

"Not fun."

"I think it's very funny if I'm a ghost, but of course you don't think it's funny if you're not a ghost." Donggong Ruoshu analyzed reasonably.

Chen Yi pressed his forehead. If it were someone else, he would probably punish her severely. But this was a stupid girl, and the more he punished her, the happier she might be.

I really don't know where to start.

Yin Tingxue sat aside, watching him helplessly suffering from a headache, her slightly upturned almond eyes full of interest.

Chen Yi glanced at her, and Yin Tingxue quickly lowered her face and pretended to read a book.

If I can’t cure Donggong Ruoshu, can I not cure you?

"Come here." Chen Yi sat down on the bed casually and hooked his finger at Yin Tingxue.

Yin Tingxue hesitated for a moment, but still went over obediently. Then Chen Yi pulled her into his arms, and he rubbed her head hard.

"You, you are getting bolder and bolder."

“No…”

"Nowhere, I'm getting more and more naughty. Do you want to control where I want to go?"

She wrinkled her nose and whispered, "I didn't care about you. How could I dare to care about you? I didn't care about you."

Having said that, it still sounded a little uncomfortable, so Chen Yi pinched her little face.

Yin Tingxue took a few steps closer and rested her soft little face on his shoulder.

This way I don't have to be pinched on the face by him, and I can still be closer to him.

Chen Yi really couldn't stand this, so he softened his tone and said, "Don't worry about what I do, just know that you care about me."

"Oh, I care about you so much."

"Oh, really?"

"I care about you very much. You don't have clairaudience, so you can't hear me." She paused and continued, "I care about you so much that maybe if you become a beggar someday, I can help you. You didn't know it was me at first, but when you found out, you burst into tears and you thought... 'So, so the little fox is so kind.'"

"over thinking."

"Thinking more is caring." She deserves it as a matter of course.

Chen Yi wanted to scold her for being sharp-tongued, but he couldn't bring himself to say it. The girl was so obedient that he wanted to stay with her all day long. As she said, it was satisfying to just hold her in his arms and do nothing.

This scene made the old saint's heart warm. When she looked outside, she saw the ghost staring with eyes wide open.

The silly girl was enjoying it and felt it was sweet.

Who told her not to understand what love between men and women is?

After a while, the waiter came upstairs to deliver the food. Chen Yi let go of Yin Tingxue, turned around the screen, and took the food box.

After ordering casually, the waiter turned around and was about to leave when Chen Yi stopped him and asked him directly:
"Little Second Brother, what strange things are happening around Longhu Mountain?"

"Look at what you said, sir...Longhu Mountain is the ancestral home of Taoism. There is a Heavenly Master who is more divine than the gods. What strange things could happen?"

"Isn't it because the evil White Lotus is rampant that Longhu Mountain has been forced to close the mountain for self-protection?"

"Sir, you must be from out of town. Longhu Mountain reopened a few days ago. Otherwise, there would be no heroes' gathering. The heroes killed many White Lotus Sect members right from the start. No evil people have come to this area openly." The waiter looked excited, obviously looking forward to it. "Once the heroes' gathering starts, the heroes will make a blood alliance and go straight to Huanglong to kill the White Lotus Mother."

It sounds like a scene of vigor and vitality, with everything flourishing.

The original intention was to invite Taoists to help with swordplay, but it suddenly became a grand event inviting all the heroes in the martial arts world, and the White Lotus Sect was quite evasive. Chen Yi suddenly felt that it was meaningless for him to go to the underground dragon and tiger with the Taisha sword on his back.

It’s so nice to have a wife and children and a warm bed in Cangwu Peak.

The waiter was provoked and continued without stopping: "This is simply a martial arts event. There will be countless masters competing openly and secretly. It's a great opportunity to make a name for yourself. Even if you don't have any moves, you may be able to join a sect and be accepted as a closed disciple. It would be great, but even being an errand boy would be a great blessing.

Hey! Sir, you are not asking if there are any strange things. There are none, but there is one very good thing - the Fox Fairy Tower of Longhu Mountain enshrines the Fox Fairy Goddess, who has been practicing in seclusion in the mountains all year round. Many Longhu Mountain disciples have not been able to see her. But this time, in order to wipe out the White Lotus Sect, Longhu Mountain’s elite troops have come out, and the Fox Fairy Goddess is also among them. She will also be the second offering in the suburban sacrifice to the sky, and I heard, I heard..."

The waiter's mouth was dry after talking for a long time. Then he lowered his voice and said in an excited but a little shy and respectful tone: "I heard that the Fox Fairy Queen... is still choosing a son-in-law!"

"Choosing a son-in-law?" Chen Yi asked puzzledly.

"Sir, you may not know that the Fox Fairy was hit by a thunderstorm and was saved by the 30th generation Heavenly Master Xu Jing Zhenjun. Since then, the Fox Fairy has lived in Longhu Mountain and helped successive Heavenly Masters to eliminate plagues, kill demons, and help the poor in the surrounding areas. She also gave birth to a daughter, 'Little White Fairy'."

“That must be very beautiful.”

"That's not true. But no one has seen her. But it is said that she has been eating fresh air and drinking sweet dew for many years. She is already half-immortal. And she is good at matchmaking. If lovers bow to her statue a few times, they will definitely get married. Hey, sir, you look quite like her. Who knows if you will be able to see her in Longhu Mountain."

Chen Yi pointed to his clothes and said, "I'm still in mourning, so forget it." After saying that, he reached into his pocket to get some reward money.

"You never know, he might fall for it." The waiter quickly complimented, "As a Taoist fox fairy, I like those who are upright. Appearance is secondary. As long as they are not as ugly as Captain Chen, it's fine."

Chen Yi touched nothing.

"Alas, I don't have much money on me. Thank you, little brother."

The waiter's eyes widened, and he saw the door was shut tight. Hey! What a waste of his time talking about dry mouth, it turns out he's a poor fellow.

Just as he was thinking about it, a loud and energetic voice suddenly rang out from downstairs: "Waiter! Hurry up and bring three jars of good wine! We brothers need to quench our thirst! Oh, and tea will do!"

The waiter took a quick glance and saw that it was a group of warriors and Taoists in twos and threes. He did not dare to delay and hurried downstairs to greet them.

Chen Yi returned to his room, put the food box on the table, and called Yin Tingxue to come and eat.

Although both of them had already reached the point where they could go without food, they were still like an ordinary couple and always felt that they had to eat together every day, otherwise they would always feel that something was wrong.

Especially Chen Yi, he often missed the days when he cooked at home in Beijing, and always felt it was particularly warm.

While eating, Chen Yi told Yin Tingxue about what he had heard about Mount Longhu. The Heroes of Mount Longhu gathered many heroes, and even the aggressive White Lotus Sect had to avoid it... As Chen Yi recounted the story, he thought carefully about the situation.

Longhu Mountain specifically asked Yinjian Mountain to borrow the Taisha Sword, so he and Yin Tingxue traveled thousands of miles together. Although they had many doubts along the way, they still arrived as promised.

As a result, the sword-assisting group of Mount Longhu became a gathering of heroes. Now, everyone is a martial arts master, and they have excessive firepower. Speaking of which, there are so many immortals in Mount Longhu, and there is also a Heavenly Master in charge. How could no one have expected this before?
Is there something that cannot be resolved without Tai's sword, or is he just trying to borrow something without returning it...
You can only know these by going to Longhu Mountain.

Also, Zhou Yitang also said that there would be a connection with Yin Tingxue, but along the way Chen Yi walked, apart from being affectionate with the little fox, there was no sign of connection at all. Could it be that he was in Longhu Mountain?
The more Chen Yi thought about it, the more strange it seemed to him. However, these things could hardly be considered suspicious. He calculated with his fingers and found nothing unusual in the hexagrams. Could it be that he was being too sensitive?

No thoughts left or right.

"What are you eating? It smells so good." Donggong Ruoshu came over at this time, "I want to eat too."

Chen Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at her.

"But how should I eat it?" Miss Donggong asked puzzledly.

Chen Yi picked up some dishes into the bowl, pushed the rice over, and stuck his chopsticks into it.

Wisps of fragrant aroma gathered and floated along the chopsticks. Donggong Ruoshu learned it by nature. He opened his mouth wide and swallowed up all the fragrance.

Chen Yi smiled, took the food back, and continued eating without complaining.

Yin Tingxue watched this scene silently, frowning slightly.

Isn't he... eating Sister Donggong's saliva...
Like he said...indirect kiss...

How embarrassing... The little fox couldn't help but want to meet Master Zhou as soon as possible, so that someone would come to take care of Chen Yi.

…………

The night was hazy, thin clouds passed across the sky, and wisps of moonlight poured into the county town.

It was curfew time and the county town was silent. No one was walking on the streets. The only lights of the patrolling police officers could be heard in the streets.

Chen Yi hugged Yin Tingxue and fell into a deep sleep.

Donggong Ruoshu was floating around in the compartment, having a lot of fun.

She didn’t know it on weekdays, but after she died, Miss Donggong discovered that being a ghost was so much fun.

Without the restraints of the physical body, the whole person feels light, even lighter than without any clothes on. You can float wherever you want, and it can be scary.

As for whether I can return to my own body?

Just external things.

Donggong Ruoshu looked here and there, then stopped in front of the bed. She looked at the two of them sleeping in each other's arms, their breathing rhythms almost overlapping. She felt quite happy.

It’s better this way. Even if he can’t get me after being seduced by me, he won’t be too sad.

Donggong Ruoshu took a deep breath, and a slightly hot breath filled her nostrils. The taste was a bit strange, yet a bit good, as if it was just what a ghost needed, so she took several deep breaths.

Chen Yi's brows frowned unconsciously, he turned over uncomfortably, and his eyelids twitched.

Donggong Ruoshu blinked his eyes and saw a long handle under the quilt, about the belt level.

Good job Chen Yi, he is truly a veteran in the martial arts world, he actually sleeps with a sword under his pillow.

Donggong Ruoshu couldn't help but admire Chen Yi's cautiousness and took several deep breaths of Yang energy.

I didn't notice at all that the hilt of the sword was a little bigger than before.

The moonlight outside the window was dim and flickering. Just as Dong Gong Ruoshu took a deep breath, he suddenly sensed a…

Smell of blood?!
Donggong Ruoshu's face was startled, his eyes suddenly turned, and he quickly passed through the gap in the door.

The smell of blood became stronger.

The cold night wind blew by, and the spring chill made the ground exceptionally cold, even Dong Gong Ruoshu felt it chilling to the bone. She followed the scent and slowly approached.

The entire inn was silent, which showed that the smell of blood was well concealed. Donggong Ruoshu took the wrong path several times, but fortunately she could still smell it and keep up.

It didn't take long before they reached the third floor, where they saw a door that was tightly closed. As Dong Gong Ruoshu approached, he smelled an indescribable strange odor, mixed with the smell of blood, which had transformed into a strange smell.

The moonlight was dim, the shadows in the corridor were eerie, and the occasional breeze made it even more eerie.

Trying to look, he found that the crack in the door was blocked tightly. Donggong Ruoshu discovered a small hole in the window paper and carefully put his eyes close to it.

There was a man hanging from the beam.

The two legs left the ground, the feet were empty, the neck was tied with a rope, and there was no sound…
The East Palace was terrified if it wasn't for the old lady.

She bit her lower lip tightly. In the moonlight, the toes of the hanging corpse were facing the window hole. The soles of the shoes were stained with wet mud, and they were swaying as if staring at her. Her throat tightened, and suddenly she found that the corpse's fingers moved.

creak.

The rope suddenly straightened. The corpse's neck slowly turned like a rusty door hinge, and dark yellow liquid oozed out from the navel, flowing down the rope and condensing into sticky drops on the toe of the shoe.

laugh.

The rope seemed to be unable to bear the weight and the body fell a little.

Donggong Ruoshu stepped back in fear. She stumbled and bumped into the railing, her back covered in cold sweat.

"What are you looking at?"

Suddenly, a pale hand rested on her shoulder from behind.

Donggong Ruoshu froze. A face popped out from behind her neck, with eyeballs almost touching her nose. "I didn't expect this room to be drafty."

A hoarse sigh brushed past his earlobe, and Donggong Ruoshu's neck felt numb.

"Would you like me to help him tie the rope tighter?" the man behind him grinned.

The rope in the room suddenly broke, and the hanging corpse fell straight onto the window paper, with its head cut off and rolling over.

Donggong Ruoshu stiffened his body and slowly turned his head...

I looked up and found...

This man has no shadow!
