This Liao Zhai is not right

As the sun sets and the night falls, there is no Black Mountain Lord casting spells to cause wind and rain. A bright moon hangs high in the sky, and it is the full moon again.

There was a full moon the night they left Guobei County for Yangzhou. The moon is also full now that they have escaped the passive situation of being retaliated by the Black Mountain Lord at any time. However, when Su Su's inner elixir was damaged, he had an extremely strong desire to breathe in the moonlight to calm down when the full moon came. However, this impulse no longer existed after he stepped half a foot into the realm of refining emptiness.

Otherwise, I really can't imagine what means the other party will use to deal with me after I tease Chang'e so much.

Thinking of this, Su Su felt very fortunate.

The situation in Guobei County was not peaceful after nightfall. Skirmishes to wipe out hundreds of ghost soldiers and generals under the command of Heishan Jun who had fled to various places in Guobei County broke out frequently. The sounds of swords clashing and ghost soldiers crossing the border were heard from time to time, causing panic among the 2,300 households in Guobei County. Fortunately, the runners from the three shifts and six rooms of the county government quelled the riots, and the ghost soldiers from the underworld, who had an absolute advantage in military strength, guarded the three townships and one town of Guobei County. As a result, no trouble occurred throughout the night.

Su Su took advantage of the night to go out of the city and use his magical power to conduct a brief inspection of the territory of Guobei County.

Most of the ghost soldiers and generals under the Black Mountain Lord who dared to show up and cause trouble have been successfully annihilated by the ghost soldiers of the underworld, but there are still many who fled to the deep mountains and old forests. Unless the ghost soldiers of the underworld are driven to dig the entire Guobei County inch by inch, it will be very difficult to catch this group of ghost soldiers and generals under the Black Mountain Lord hiding in the deep mountains and old forests in a short period of time.

The battle between King Yama and Lord Black Mountain in the underworld was even more intense. In the second half of the night, the judge of the underworld even appeared in the world of the living through the ghost gate of Yizhuang. He transferred most of the underworld soldiers stationed around Yizhuang and sent them down to the underworld to participate in the battle against Lord Black Mountain.

When Su Su passed by the charity cemetery, he asked around and a ghost general from the underworld reported that King Yama had dealt a heavy blow to Black Mountain Lord in the underworld. Black Mountain Lord, whose ghost body contained thousands of Yin gods, had fled into the Black Mountain Mountains, which stretches for more than 700 miles, to put up a desperate resistance. King Yama sent a judge to Guobei County to mobilize the Yin soldiers to join the battle, in order to attack the Black Mountain Mountains where Black Mountain Lord was located.

"Although Lord Heishan was indeed hunted down by King Yanluo and became a stray dog, the assault war turned into a positional war. This is not a war that can be ended in a short time."

Chapter 129 Peace and security

King Yama is busy conquering the Lord of Black Mountain, so he will have no time to take care of the affairs of the underworld.

In the coming period of time, the situation in the underworld is bound to become more chaotic.

Meanwhile, the world of the living is also uneasy. Inside, the White Lotus demon is becoming increasingly rampant in northern Zhili, central Shaanxi, Henan, Shandong, Shanxi and other places. They are preparing to nominate Xu Hongru, the master of the Wenxiang Dao, as the leader of the White Lotus Sect in an attempt to start a rebellion. Outside, the barbarians from outside the Great Wall have captured the former emperor alive, and are frequently knocking on the gates to plunder. The war will reignite if we are not careful. Not to mention the situation in the court. The new emperor, who has just ascended the throne for less than a year, is obsessed with cultivating immortals and cannot extricate himself. The demon monk national teacher has stolen power and is causing chaos in the court.

The rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.

Any one of these factors is enough to cause chaos, let alone all three occurring at the same time.

The underworld of the underworld and the imperial court of the world of the living have successively updated their versions of troubled times.

The gods in heaven naturally cannot be aloof from the world.

There is a chapter in Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio that briefly depicts the situation faced by all the immortals and gods in the sky.

This article is titled "Master of West Lake".

It tells the story of a scholar from Hebei named Chen Bijiao who worked as a clerk for the deputy general Jia Wan. When they were boating on Dongting Lake, Jia Wan was hunting a pig dragon that had surfaced with a bow and arrow. Chen Bijiao saw that the pig dragon was dying and its mouth kept opening and closing towards him, as if begging for help. He couldn't help but feel sorry for it, so he pleaded with Jia Wan to let the pig dragon go, and even used the golden wound medicine he carried with him to treat the arrow wound in the pig dragon.

More than a year later, Chen Bijiao returned to his hometown in Hebei and passed Dongting Lake again on the way. Unfortunately, he encountered a strong wind, which overturned his boat and drowned the servants on the spot. However, Chen Bijiao accidentally entered the Dragon Palace of Dongting Lake, where he saw undulating mountains, majestic palaces and pavilions, and towering waterside pavilions.

Chen Bijiao met the Dragon Palace Princess in Dongting Dragon Palace and was deeply attracted to her. As a result, the princess heard about his frivolous behavior, and immediately sent her subordinates to capture Chen Bijiao.

After the two met, before Chen Bijiao could react, the princess of Dongting Lake Lord revealed her identity, saying that she was the pig dragon that Chen Bijiao had rescued from Jia Wan last year. Then she betrothed her daughter to Chen Bijiao on the spot, and arranged the marriage that night at the speed of Liao Zhai, sent her to the bridal chamber, and then slept with her.

In the bridal chamber, the woman revealed her identity, saying that her mother was the daughter of the Dragon King of the Yangtze River, and her father was the Dragon King of Dongting Lake, who was following Guan Yu to fight Chi You and had not yet returned.

From this we can see that after the gods in heaven stayed indoors, Guan Sheng's war against Chi You still involved a wide range of people. Even the Dragon King of Dongting Lake who lived deep inland was recruited to join the war against Chi You.

Furthermore, from what Sun Si Niang said, that Medicine King Sun Simiao was also beset with calamities, and although he was a righteous god, he could only sit back and watch Sun Si Niang being hunted by the Dragon King of Kunming Lake and had to hide everywhere. It can be seen that many of the immortals and gods in the sky are ready to make a move, and who knows what they want to plan by taking advantage of the coming of troubled times and the breaking of the seal of the remaining soul of the evil god Chi You.

He barely escaped the passive situation where he could be retaliated by Heishan Jun at any time, but in the face of the mighty trend of the world, Su Fu got a glimpse of it and fell into an even greater passive situation.

"When facing the general trend of the world, even if you are a deity, you can only go with the flow. I'd better take it one step at a time. For the time being, it's good enough to guard this small piece of land in Guobei County."

With this thought in mind, Su Su returned to the small courtyard inside the land temple after completing his inspection of the territory of Guobei County.

By this time the sky was already beginning to brighten.

Compared with yesterday's sunny weather, it has been raining since dawn today.

Raindrops as thin as hair were falling lightly, and beside him he could hear the rustling sound of Chang'e threading the needle to sew her wedding dress. Su Su had no choice but to sit in the main bedroom, staring blankly at the raindrops falling outside the window.

Perhaps it was the influence of the two days of continuous fighting between the ghost soldiers under the command of Heishan Jun and the ghost soldiers of the underworld in Guobei County. Quite a large number of people from inside and outside the city came to the City God Temple to add oil and burn incense, seeking protection, making the incense in the City God Temple more intense and prosperous than ever before.

Feeling the divine power transformed from the seal of the City God of Guobei County, which suddenly increased several times, Su Su finally understood why so many local gods liked to play tricks such as showing off their divine power as high as a mountain and their divine grace as vast as the sea.

There aren't many other factors.

This is because the incense and prayer power gained from this sustainable fishing method is really considerable.

Spending the least amount of divine power to appear before people, but gaining no less incense and prayer power than appearing frequently, is obviously the most cost-effective option.

"The future of being a god is limited. Even after a hundred years of hard work, it is extremely difficult to be promoted to the position of a city god. No wonder there are so many who just lie down and do nothing. But even if you do nothing, you still have to fulfill your duties as a god."

Su Su sighed weakly.

Having gotten rid of the threat from Heishan Jun, and given that Guobei County was small and sparsely populated, it was unlikely that anything would happen that would require her to take personal action.

As for the passers-by who stayed temporarily in Lanruo Temple, most of them left Guobei County yesterday while the sun was shining brightly and the evil spirits did not dare to show up and cause trouble. The rest would probably not stay for long, and would stay for no more than two or three days at the latest.

What surprised Su Su the most was that Yan Chixia, who had easily killed more than 30 ghost soldiers under the command of Lord Heishan with a single sword, actually entered Guobei City shortly after dawn and bought some grain, oil, rice, flour, and bedding, as if he was planning to stay in Lanruo Temple for a long time.

With such a ruthless person living in Guobei County, Su Su had even less things to do.

Having teased Chang'e quite a bit yesterday, she naturally did not dare to continue harassing Chang'e who was busy sewing her wedding dress.

The other party was busy working, waiting to take Su Su to meet Mrs. Lin after the work was completed, and then let her taste what it meant to reap the fruits of one's own actions.

The peaceful day passed in a flash.

At night, except for the underworld soldiers who were still in Guobei County to wipe out the remnants of the defeated troops under the command of Heishan Jun who were hiding in the deep mountains and forests, the rest of the place was calm.

As usual, Su Su used his magical powers to patrol outside the city.

Wherever they passed, large groups of underworld soldiers came and went to investigate suspicious ghosts in Guobei County, but there were only a handful of pedestrians holding lanterns and walking on the night road.

It was a completely bizarre scene with more ghosts than people.

Lu Pan, who was on a mission outside, and Xue, the patrol envoy of the Five Cities, who came to pay their respects one after another and reported on the situation in recent days. Although Su Fu hid his face in front of them, the karma fire that had condensed into the red flower ornament between his eyebrows still made them feel uneasy.

Su Su had no idea what they were really thinking, but on the surface they all seemed to have become more submissive.

After the customary politeness, Su Su left under the gaze of Lu Pan and Xue, the patrol envoy of the Five Cities, and went straight to the ghost gate of the charity cemetery on the outskirts of the city.

This place is still a strategic location guarded by the underworld's ghost soldiers.

So as soon as he landed, Su Su saw Chunyan, a beautiful maid in a green jacket and red skirt, with an angry look on her face and muttering to herself, and she was in a stalemate with the ghost soldiers guarding the Ghost Gate.

Chapter 130 The Long Night

"what!"

Suddenly seeing Su Fu floating down to the ground, Chunyan, who was in a stalemate with the ghost soldiers guarding the Ghost Gate, showed joy on her face, and quickly turned sideways and bowed, saying: "Greetings to the City Goddess."

"Why did you come here?"

Su Su took a quick look at Chunyan and saw that she was still dressed in the green jacket and red skirt, holding an iron chain in her hand, behind which were tied five or six wronged souls of the dead with incomplete limbs and full of resentment.

He immediately realized that Chunyan was taking the souls of the wrongfully dead to the underworld and heading to Gegu Garden as usual, but was stopped by the underworld soldiers guarding the place.

"Recently, there have been many evil spirits wreaking havoc in Jinhua, killing many innocent people. The Queen ordered me to come here to collect the souls of those who died unjustly and bring them to the orphanage for adoption." Chunyan explained as Su Fu had expected.

Then he turned to look at the ghost soldiers guarding the Ghost Gate and said anxiously, "Who would have thought that after I collected the souls of those who were killed by evil spirits in Jinhua, I wanted to go to the underworld through the Ghost Gate of Guobei County, but they blocked me. They refused to let me go even when I revealed my queen's name."

You are not talking nonsense.

Today, Guobei County is a battlefield for fighting against the ghost soldiers and generals under the command of Heishan Jun. There are many ghost soldiers from the underworld stationed there. They will never allow you to pass through the ghost gate and travel between the Yin and Yang freely.

Su Su had no choice but to briefly describe the war that had taken place in Guobei County in recent days. Chunyan's face turned pale and she said in a trembling voice, "I thought that the Black Mountain Lord had already done his best by sending a hundred or so ghost soldiers to invade Guobei County. I never imagined that he would come to the world of the living in his ghost god's avatar."

Before she finished speaking, Chunyan turned her gaze to Su Fu and looked at him for a long time. Seeing that Su Fu was unharmed, she thought that he must have defeated the Yin God clone of Heishan Jun who had forcibly descended to the world of the living, and she heaved a sigh of relief.

"Since the Ghost Gate in Guobei County is inaccessible, I will have to find another Ghost Gate to descend to the underworld."

"The battle in Guobei County has long been settled. Only some defeated soldiers are still hiding in the deep mountains and old forests. It will be difficult to wipe them out in a short period of time. You should go through this ghost gate."

Su Fu asked the ghost soldiers guarding the Ghost Gate to let Chunyan pass, and then reminded her: "The Ghost Gate of Guobei County is close to the Black Mountain Range of Heishan Jun. You must be careful when passing by."

"Thank you, Lady City God. I will definitely keep an eye out for it."

Chunyan turned sideways and bowed again.

Watching Chunyan taking the souls of the wrongfully deceased people, who were chained and shackled, down to the underworld through the Ghost Gate, Su Su couldn't help but recall that when he left Geigu Garden last time, Jinse had specifically told him that there was a Ghost Gate in Guobei County adjacent to Geigu Garden, and that he should visit more often in the future.

Considering that Jinse had previously sent Chunyan to report the news as soon as she learned that Heishan Jun was going to invade Guobei County, it would be reasonable for her to pay him a visit and express her gratitude in person no matter what.

"It seems that I have to go to Geguyuan as soon as possible to find Jinse and thank her. Traveling in the underworld with the magic of speed seems to be no slower than the ghosts riding the wind. It won't take more than a few hours to get to Geguyuan in the underworld of Yishui."

After this brief episode, Su Su secretly made up his mind while continuing to patrol the territory of Guobei County.

Tonight's battle where the underworld's ghost soldiers were encircling and annihilating the remnants of the defeated troops under Lord Black Mountain was mostly taking place in the deep mountains and old forests far away from human habitation, so Su Su just watched from afar for a few seconds and then turned and left.

When passing the east of the city, he suddenly saw a crystal white light circling the night sky. Upon closer inspection, he saw that it was actually a sharp flying sword about two inches long and as wide as a leek leaf, with no hilt.

"Almost all the passers-by who were staying temporarily in Lanruo Temple have left, leaving only Yan Chixia behind. He is circling in the night sky with his flying sword unsheathed. Are you really planning to go down to the underworld to deal with Black Mountain Lord?"

Su Su kept his distance from Yan Chixia. When he saw a flying sword circling over Lanruo Temple, he immediately took a detour to avoid any further trouble.

After a quick inspection of the territory of Guobei County, he slowly returned to the courtyard of the land temple, but it was not even the hour of Hai yet.

The night is long and I have no intention of sleeping.

Su Su had no choice but to take out Taoist Shan's notes and read through them, continuing to study the magic techniques recorded in them.

"You have the Yang God cultivation base, so if you continue to study those minor techniques, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?"

Chang'e's attention was entirely on the bright red wedding dress she was sewing, but she was aware of Su Fu's every move.

"It's not late yet, and there's nothing to do, so I have to find something to do."

Su Fu put away Taoist Shan's notes with a lack of interest, turned his head to look at Chang'e who was busy threading the needle, and said, "You think the spells recorded in this note are all minor, but you should take out some decent ones for me to practice!"

Hearing this, the other party slowly stopped the needlework in her hands and couldn't help but roll her eyes and look at Su Su.

"The cultivation in the world can be summarized in these sixteen words: refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into the Dao. Those miscellaneous methods are still useful before cultivating into Yang God. But you, a vixen, have already stepped half a foot into the realm of refining emptiness. You are practicing all the time. You only need to wash away the remaining evil and bad luck to succeed. How dare you abandon the root and pursue the end?"

"If you have the free time, why not let me teach you some needlework."

See the picture poorly.

This was because he saw that Su Su had nothing to do all day and wanted to find her something to do.

"You know I'm clumsy, but you still make things difficult for me. It would be more appropriate for you to just ask me to sleep with you."

She took out a round fan from her sleeve and half-covered her pretty face, then stood quietly by the window, her brows slightly furrowed, her eyes conveying an aggrieved expression, and she put on a pitiful posture, which made people want to hold her in their arms and love her well.

Since realizing his own advantages, Su Su has become more and more skilled in using them.

After just a few words, the other party lost interest in fiddling with needle and thread to sew the wedding dress. She stood up and wanted to grab Su Su, who was leaning against the window.

But Su Fu just dodged to the side, leaving Chang'e empty-handed.

"My dear sister, why are you acting like this? If you want it, just tell me directly."

The attack was effective, and Su Su continued to add fuel to the fire with a resentful tone.

Of course, Chang'e could see that Su Fu was teasing her on purpose, so she simply turned her head away and stopped looking at the seductive look in her eyes and eyebrows. She said in a bad tone, "Someone wants to make me embarrassed just for the sake of momentary pleasure. Be careful not to play with fire or you will get burned."

"How can you say that? It was obviously my good sister who started the trouble first, and I was just following the trend."

Su Fu waved the round fan in his hand and fanned the fragrant wind to Chang'e in the room through the window. It was a rare opportunity to make Chang'e feel defeated. He felt that he had found her weakness and couldn't help feeling proud.

But in order to prevent further irritation and arousal, Su Su quickly changed the subject and said, "In a few days I have to go down to the underworld to visit Lady Jinse in Geiguyuan to thank her for sending Chunyan to report the news. Will you go, dear sister?"

"I didn't hear you clearly. Please come closer and say it again."

Chang'e cast a gaze at Su Su, who was teasing her repeatedly outside the window, and didn't care about what Su Su said at all.

Chapter 131 The evil plot succeeds

Come over and say it again?

How insane do I have to be to do something this insane?

Su Su was almost amused by this, so instead of listening to the other party and going over to repeat it, she gradually moved away from the window, with a smug look in her eyes, "My dear sister, don't lie to me. Give me a definite answer whether you are going or not."

"So what if I go? What if I don't go?"

Seeing Su Su's smug look, Chang'e said with some shame and anger, "Jinse sent someone to tell you the news, and you should have come to thank her. But what does it have to do with you, a foxy girl, coming to seduce me so many times? Don't change the subject."

The intention to change the subject was directly exposed.

Through the window, he saw Chang'e's flushed face, her delicate outline rising and falling, and the fiery look in her beautiful eyes had not diminished in the slightest. It was obvious that Su Fu had aroused her passion.

Su Su suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

Although he teased Chang'e severely and made her feel very happy, the other party's fiery gaze made her a little flustered.

"come over."
