Sword of Coming

Once the spiritual energy of the world's mountains and rivers changes, it will easily lead to a situation where blessings and misfortunes are reversed.

Chen Ping'an walked towards the Fire God Temple. The atmosphere of the City God Temple showed no signs of collapse and should be able to maintain it for some time.

There was also a flourishing incense at the Fire God Temple, but compared to the chaos in the City God's Temple, the incense here was clearer, more stable, and the gathering and dispersing were orderly.

But he also did not step into it. He is now able to suppress the weird things on his body with his fists. However, after setting foot in the temple, Chen Pingan is not sure whether it will attract unnecessary attention. If it were not for this trip to the southeast of Beiju Luzhou The trip was too hasty. According to Chen Ping'an's original plan, after walking through the Swaying River Temple on the Skeleton Beach, he would then visit several large ancestral temples of the secular dynasty and inspect them personally. After all, it is similar to the Swaying River Temple. The owner is a landscape deity who is a neighbor of the Pima Sect. He has a high vision. If he goes in and burns incense himself, people may not take it seriously. Whether people see him or not does not mean anything. But the largest river at the southern end of Yizhou The god did not appear in the temple, but he played the role of a boatman, trying to teach me some kindness.

Chen Ping'an wandered around the incense shop near the Fire God Temple again and asked some about the god's background.

One thing is similar to the old shopkeeper of the City God Temple. This god who sits in the south of the city has never really appeared in the market. His deeds and legends are more numerous than that of the City God in the north of the city, and he sounds closer to him than the City God. Most of the people's stories are about rewarding good and punishing evil, and playing with the human world. Moreover, the history is very long, and it is only passed down from generation to generation before it is circulated in the mouths of future generations. There is a rumor among them that the master of the Fire God Temple, There used to be some disputes with the "Lake Lord" of Cangjun Lake, a flood-prone lake 800 miles away. Because under the jurisdiction of Cangjun Lake, there was a lady who was the owner of the Narcissus Temple. She once annoyed the owner of the Fire God Temple, and the two sides fought. , the owner of the Daxi Canal was not an opponent, so he sent reinforcements to the Lord of the Lake. As for the final result, it was an unnamed passing swordsman who persuaded the two gods, so that the Lord of the Lake did not use his magical power, and the water Flooded the city.

Chen Ping'an thought for a while, then left Suijia City, directly chose a mountain road, and secretly went to the Narcissus Temple under the jurisdiction of Cangjun Lake. If the god of Po is really still there, we can make some insinuations to see if we can learn the inside story of Suiji City. If a disaster really affects a whole city, someone should take care of it. If it's a fight between gods in a small place, let's wait and see.

In the night, Chen Ping'an followed a wide stream to an ancestral temple. The road was overgrown with weeds and sparsely populated. It can be seen that the incense of the canal owner's wife had withered.

And this temple is actually only a few dozen miles away from the urban town.

However, Chen Ping'an had previously seen a group of people walking towards the ancestral temple holding torches on a hilltop at the intersection of streams and lakes.

Chen Ping'an followed them all the way and listened to their exchange of words. He was a little dumbfounded. These well-fed and well-fed young people from the city were actually competing with each other on their courage to see who dared to enter the temple. Teasing the channel owner's wife. This kind of thing is actually common in the urban and rural areas. It happened in Chen Ping'an's hometown town back then. If any child dared to sleep in the immortal tomb for a night, he would be an indomitable hero. Xinghua There once was a peer of the same age in Xiang who claimed that he had been lying in the Immortal Tomb all night. As a result, under the old locust tree, when he proudly mentioned this matter, he suddenly gained the admiration of many of his peers. "After this battle," he He became the king of children in the Xinghua Lane area. In the years that followed, he enjoyed bullying Chen Pingan and Song Jixin, the neighbors of Mubo Lane. Of course, he also wanted to be able to use that name when playing house. The weird Zhigui played his little daughter-in-law, but unfortunately she was scolded by Song Jixin. Zhigui, who always had a straight face and cold eyes, ran back to the town with Song Jixin, while the peer With his followers behind him, he threw mud at the master and servant pair.

In fact, that night, Chen Ping'an happened to go there to worship the Bodhisattva. He saw his contemporary from a distance, but he just wandered outside the immortal tomb for a few steps and then rushed home.

Tonight, when Chen Ping'an saw the group of seven or eight people, he was unwilling to treat himself badly and brought enough food and wine. When these people entered the Narcissus Temple, which was only two steps into the courtyard, the plaque was tilted, the temple had been abandoned for a long time and was dilapidated, and the walls were covered with thick green sedges. Chen Pingan was sitting in the distance outside the temple. Standing on a big tree with a wide view, Chen Pingan put his hiking pole across his knees, put his hands in his sleeves, raised his eyes and watched the changes.

Chen Pingan took out the dry food, picked off the sword gourd filled with water from the deep stream of Baojing Mountain, and began to eat midnight snacks. This journey was not just a leisurely stroll.

Inside the small ancestral temple, several bonfires had been lit, people were drinking wine and eating meat, and they were having a great time, talking dirty words a lot.

There are three statues enshrined, one tall and two short. They were originally painted statues, but the paint has peeled off over time. In the center is the wife of the canal owner, and on the left and right should be the maids accompanying her.

The three of them all have vivid features and lifelike features, especially the owner of the stream and canal, who has a slender figure, dangling pearls, and a particularly beautiful appearance.

Chen Pingan glanced at it and felt a little strange. The three statues did not look like golden bodies that could hide the divine light.

This is also the luck of those street libertines.

Chen Ping'an planned to go to Cangjun Lake after eating dry food, but there was no temple on the shore for the Lake Lord, so he had a headache. If that doesn't work, I have to show up and ask those cowardly guys if there is any water god temple nearby.

Chen Ping'an began to close his eyes and rest his mind, and began to refine those few mouthfuls of gloomy water from the deep stream of Baojing Mountain.

At the same time, the mind is slowly immersed, using the method of introspection from the mountain entrance, the Yin spirit travels inside its own small world.

The contents recorded in some ancient books today can easily confuse future generations of book readers.

For example, Gong led his officials and people to sink a white horse to worship the water god Hebo. Why it is a white horse is never explained in the book.

As for the saying that the water god cannot be seen, he will be waiting for big fish and dragons. It is even more puzzling that in all the continents and places in the world, the golden bodies of gods in landscapes and temples have never been uncommon.

Chen Ping'an suddenly opened his eyes, and instantly gathered all his energy, becoming completely still.

Only looking at the mouth of the distant stream where the lake enters, there is a ripple that affects the subtle changes in the aura of heaven and earth. Then Chen Ping'an quickly sees the water over there with a gleaming color, and three women, one in front and two behind, coming slowly. The leading woman is wearing a colorful dress with swaying belt and mist. The two maids behind her also look like those in the Narcissus Temple, but their appearance is actually better than that of the statue. The lady of the canal owner, on the other hand, is actually far more beautiful. It is not as good as the painting of the statue of the god. I wonder what the skilled craftsman who cut the face of the statue of the canal master in the ancestral temple thought every time he cut it.

Turning his attention again, Chen Ping'an began to admire the courage of the guys in the temple. One of the young men climbed up to the altar, hugged the statue of the canal master and started to bite it. He kept making obscene remarks, causing a roar in the hall. Laughter, strange screams, and cheers continued.

When I was young, this was probably the case. I always felt that not following the rules was a skillful thing.

And when I was young, I met a girl I actually liked. I bullied her a little, scolded her a few times, and rolled my eyes a few times, and then I liked each other.

The three women who came from Cangjun Lake used a blind trick when they approached the temple and turned into a white-haired old woman and two young girls.

The old woman had a sneer on her face, and after entering the temple, she had a kind look on her face.

The young men and young men were dumbfounded when they saw the old woman with gray hair and chicken skin, and the two young girls behind her.

For a moment, there was silence in the temple, except for the occasional crackling of dead branches from the fire.

Especially the young man who had his hands around the neck of the statue of the canal owner and his legs wrapped around his waist. He turned his head and was at a loss.

One of the young men gently bumped the young man next to him with his elbow, and said in a trembling voice: "Isn't it true that the Water Goddess is here to punish me?"

The man shook his head, and his shock turned into surprise. He chuckled and said, "Keep your eyes open. It looks like something. She is an old woman walking at night, with two granddaughters. She is probably someone from the nearby village that we don't know." , we are so blessed."

The young man secretly wiped the grease stains from the corner of his mouth. Because he knew the man's temperament, he was really afraid that he would do something bad if he drank too much. He carefully persuaded him: "Brother, let's not be impulsive. If we make a big fuss, we will be sued." .”

The young man sneered and said: "Are you making a big fuss? It's better to make a big fuss. You can just marry someone as a wife. Don't rob me. I like the films of those two girls, but I'm kind, I only want the one on the left and the one on the right, you can discuss it slowly among yourselves."

The old woman pretended to be panicked and was about to leave with the two girls. The man was already surrounded by people.

The young man who was the boldest to jump onto the altar had already slipped off the statue of his wife. With his hands on his hips, he looked at the scene at the door and said with a playful smile: "Sure enough, the stranger with the knife was right. I am now very lucky. , Liu San, one is yours and the other is mine!"

Chen Pingan suddenly frowned.

Looking at a beam in the temple.

A person sat up, a strong man with thick eyebrows, a knife hanging on his waist and his legs hanging down. He yawned and lazily pulled off a yellow paper talisman from his body. After it was torn off, the talisman suddenly burned up.

The old woman looked shocked.

The man smiled and said: "You don't need to do anything to catch fish."

The man stretched his muscles and waved his sleeves at the same time, and a stream of spiritual energy swam around the walls like a snake. Then he snapped his fingers. Golden talismans suddenly appeared on the walls inside and outside the temple, and the talismans were like flying birds.

Before his group of market idiots set off, they took the lead in sneaking into the Narcissus Temple. After drawing the talisman, they also used unique talismans and secret techniques, like the turtle's breath concealment technique, so that they could conceal their own qi. Otherwise, the channel owner's wife But he was about to be scared away. As for those detention talismans, they are a good means for the sect to become famous. They are called snow mud talismans, also known as flying bird seals. After the talismans are completed, they are the most hidden and difficult to detect. They are really like the flying dragon stepping on the snow mud and accidentally leaving fingers on it. Claw, how can Hongfei count things?

However, in addition to this special skill of talisman, my sect is a well-known military sect, and it is good at assassination, and it is different from ordinary military sects. Therefore, most of the brothers in the same sect are the personal followers of the generals of the secular dynasty. , although the master sect is not the top immortal family in the territory of more than ten countries, no one dares to underestimate it. It's just that he has a wild temper and can't be restrained. For decades, he only likes to hang out in the rivers and lakes at the foot of the mountain. He would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. When he has nothing to do, he will tease the heroes of the rivers and lakes who are like loaches in the water and earthworms on the mountains. He is free to live and die. I'm happy too. Especially those so-called female heroes, they have a special taste.

At this moment, the man looked at the old woman and the two girls and regarded them as his treasure.

The old woman asked slowly: "I wonder why this immortal master deliberately tried to lure me out of the lake? Isn't it bad to do this in my home?"

The man reached out and grabbed a wine bottle from the side of the bonfire. He raised his head and took a big sip. Then he threw it out and said disgustedly: "What did these little bastards buy? It smells like urine. No wonder your brain is confused after drinking this kind of drink."

The man seemed to be in a bad mood and stared at the old woman, "My junior brother and your Lord Cangjun Lake are not getting along very well. It just so happened that this time I was ordered by my teacher to go to Suijia City, and Lord Hu was hiding at the bottom of his lake. Dragon Palace, it’s hard to find. I know you, a bitch, have always been a resentful woman who can’t bear loneliness. The grudge between my silly junior brother and Cangjun Lake was ultimately caused by you, so I have to sacrifice you. , Lake Lord came here, it was just right, as long as he climbed onto the shore, I really didn’t fear him at all. Didn’t they say that the channel owner’s wife was his forbidden wife? I will play with you to death later, and then throw your body in By Cangjun Lake, let’s see if he can bear it.”

The old woman's face turned pale.

The two maids were even more pitiful and pitiful. His wife could still maintain the blindness, but their spiritual energy had been lost, and their true appearance was vaguely visible.

Those street libertines were all frightened and turned pale.

Especially the frivolous young man standing on the altar, who already had to lean on the statue of the god to stand without falling.

Although Chen Ping'an didn't know how that man was able to conceal his Qi so well, one thing was obvious. There were no good people in the three sides of the temple.

The only boy still sitting by the campfire still had some conscience left, but now he was so scared that he peed his pants.

The old woman simply removed her cover and forced a smile, "This great immortal master should be from the Ghost Ax Palace of Jinduo Kingdom, right?"

The man was stunned for a moment and began to curse: "How can you be so fucking like you that you can make my junior brother miss you for so many years after having a good time? I took him through the rivers and lakes in his early years to help him relax and relieve his boredom. I have tasted the taste of many powerful ladies and beautiful heroines, but my junior brother has always found them boring. Why, are you so good at bed?"

On the branch in the distance, Chen Pingan, who always had his hands in his sleeves, narrowed his eyes.

The lady who owned the canal at the entrance of the temple had an ugly face, but she still said in a flattering tone: "Back then, I and the immortal master's junior brother fell in love with each other. We not only wanted to be a couple, but we were also determined to be an unruly couple of gods, humans, and Taoists. , but he was framed by the bastard servant of the owner of Zaoxi Canal, and secretly reported the matter to Mr. Hu. Even after I tried to persuade Mr. Hu, he still insisted on hurting people, and that was why there was such a misunderstanding. Master Xian People are wise."

Seeing the man on the beam, his wife had started to press the handle of the knife, grabbed a maid with one hand, pulled her forward, and said with a charming smile: "Master Immortal, these two maids of mine are quite handsome, so I gave them to the Immortal Master as bed-warming maids, I just hope that if I show mercy on them, I can send them back to Cangjun Lake when I get tired of them next year."

The man asked: "What about you?"

The channel owner's wife smiled and said, "If the Immortal Master likes me and doesn't despise the beauty of this servant, why not sleep with me together?"

The man was noncommittal and raised his chin twice, "How do you deal with these bastards?"

His wife smiled sweetly and said, "If you offend the gods, you will die. If you offend the Immortal Master, you will die. I will clean up these guys now? There is a glistening cup in the sleeve of the slave, with Cang Yun. The essence of the lake water is used to make wine, so I just take this opportunity to invite you to drink to your heart's content. I will personally pour the wine for Master Immortal. These two maids were the former palace dancers during their lifetime. After taking off their clothes, they danced to add to the fun."

The man still smiled playfully and remained silent.

This made the canal owner's wife even more upset.

In an instant.

The man slashed out with his sword without any warning.

The owner's wife shrank in fear, but fortunately the sword light did not take her head, but went outside the temple.

His wife's face turned pale and she turned to look.

On the other side of a big tree, illuminated by the light of the sword, on the branches, a young ranger wearing a bamboo hat raised his head slightly, with one hand still tucked into his sleeve, holding the spatula with only one hand. The light, the sword light collided with the Gang Qi condensed near the palm, making the stranger look like a god, holding the bright moon in his hand.

The man was surprised, his face remained unchanged, he changed from sitting to squatting on the beam, holding a knife in his hand, the blade was sharp, he said in wonder: "Hey, what a handsome technique, the Gang Qi is pure, condensed and perfect, when did the Silver Screen Kingdom appear? You are such a young master of martial arts? I have dealt with the first person in the world of Yinping Kingdom. With all my strength, I can block this sword, but I will never be able to do so easily."

Chen Ping'an gently put away his palm, and after the last bit of sword light dissipated, he asked: "The talisman you were wearing before and the talisman painted on the wall are the secrets of the master's sect? Only you Ghost Ax Palace monks can use them?"

The man smiled and said: "I just borrowed the light sword to greet you, and you have to pretend to be a big man with me?"

The man fell from the beam to the ground. When he strode towards the temple entrance, the owner's wife and two maids, as well as the men from the market who had already dispersed, hurriedly moved further away.

The man put his knife on the ground and said with a sneer: "Quickly tell me your name! If the hilltop is familiar to our Ghost Ax Palace, then it is a friend. If it is a friend, we can share the blessings. Tonight's romantic encounter, whoever meets you will have a share. If it is If you plan to be a wealthy man with a warm heart, and perform chivalrous acts here tonight, then I, Du Yuke, will teach you how to be a good person."

Those young people in the market only thought that what the immortal master said was frightening.

But the channel owner's wife was very surprised. Du's words were actually very mysterious. They couldn't be said to be a sign of weakness, but they definitely couldn't be called arrogance and domineering.

Next, the channel owner’s wife was even more shocked.

The young ranger disappeared in a flash and stood outside the open door of the temple. He smiled and said, "Then I beg you to teach me how to behave."

Du Yu put one hand against the handle of the knife, made a fist with the other hand, twisted it gently, and said with a ferocious expression: "Should we decide the winner or loser, or directly decide life and death?!"

As a result, the man replied: "You didn't kill me, you almost scared me to death."

The owner's wife really didn't have the guts to laugh out loud, otherwise she would have burst into laughter.

Suddenly, his wife's thoughts changed and she took a step back, "Du Yu, Du Yu from Ghost Ax Palace! Are you the legitimate son of the great couple on Jinduo Mountain?!"

Du Yu twitched the corner of his mouth, "Okay, I'm quite sensible. This aunt can survive."

But the man outside the door said again: "How big a Taoist monk are you? Two monks in the upper five realms?"

The channel owner’s wife was overjoyed, what a great thing! He had moved out of Du Yu's prominent identity, but the other party was still not afraid at all. It seemed that the worst situation tonight was to chase away the wolf and eat the tiger. If both sides really wanted to lose, that would be the best. If the sudden appearance of Leng Tou Qing won, it would be even worse It's better than dealing with a ranger who has no grievances and no grudges. It's always easier to negotiate, and it's better than dealing with Du Yu, a vicious man who comes towards you. Even if Du Yu chopped the young ranger who looked down on him into a puddle of flesh, he should still remember the little kindness he had just shown. After all, Du Yu didn't look like he wanted to fight for his life. Otherwise, according to the bad temper of the monks from Ghost Ax Palace, he would have stabbed people long ago.

Du Yu hooked his fingers, raised the knife, waved it casually, and said with a smile: "As long as you can break the talisman array and enter this temple, I will let you use it."

In an instant, golden light exploded all around the temple wall, dazzling people.

Then I saw the young ranger wearing a bamboo hat, elusive as a ghost, appearing beside Du Yu, sweeping his arm on the latter's neck, beating Du Yu's whole body, causing him to faint on the spot, and then hit him hard On the altar in the temple, not only was the statue of the canal owner's wife smashed into two pieces, but Du Yu was also trapped in the wall. As for the knife, it fell to the ground with a clanging sound.

The knife on the ground was as bright as water, it should be a good knife.

Chen Ping'an held the hiking stick and stood on the spot. This slight change of the iron cavalry chisel formation, combined with the square-inch talisman after breaking the formation into the temple, naturally left strength, otherwise this man who threatened to let himself take a move Guy, he should be an unfilial son and let the white-haired couple of Ghost Ax Palace give away the black-haired one. Of course, it is not surprising that the monks on the mountain still have a childlike appearance even at the age of a hundred or even a thousand years.

The reason why he reserved his attention was naturally that Chen Ping'an wanted to go back and "humbly ask for advice" from that person on two unique talismans.

As for the young and strong young people in the city who were all in despair, they were instantly stunned by the ripples of energy stirred up by the fist.

As for the frivolous young man on the altar, Du Yu kicked him backwards and knocked him unconscious. Compared to the man in the courtyard, the young man's end was even more miserable.

Everything was calculated to perfection.

But it's just one punch.

Only the young man sitting by the campfire was left.

Chen Pingan glanced at him, "Can't you pretend to be dead?"

The young man quickly fell back to the ground, tilted his head, rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue.

Chen Pingan smiled and asked: "Madam, the owner of the canal, do you mind if I broke your statue?"

As he spoke, he waved his sleeves and swept one of the young and strong men away from the wall like a broom. The man collided with the wall, and there was a slight sound of bones shattering.

The canal owner who was in charge of the water transport of a river felt that all his bones were about to break.

The owner's wife hurriedly said in a trembling voice: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. As long as the immortal master is happy, it doesn't matter if it is broken into two pieces or beaten into pieces."

Chen Ping'an asked: "What's going on over there in Suijia City?"

The channel owner’s wife bent down slightly, holding an immortal artifact with a shining light in both hands, "Master Immortal, you can drink wine while I allow you to speak slowly."

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "What you are doing is not popular among people named Du. Do you think it will work? Besides, why does his junior brother still miss you so much? Don't you have any idea, Mrs. Du? Do you really think so?" If you are looking for death, you should find a smarter way. Do you think my boxing skills are low, my experience in the world is not deep, and I am easy to deceive?"

The owner's wife quickly put away the wine cup, but a chill surged from the top of her head, and then she felt heart-wrenching pain. She was slapped so hard that her knees sank into the ground.

With her soul swaying, as if she were in a frying pan, the wife endured the severe pain, her teeth chattered, and her trembling voice became heavier, saying: "Master Immortal, have mercy, Master Immortal, have mercy, I don't dare to seek death on my own anymore."

Chen Pingan waved his hand, "I'm not Du, I have nothing to do with you and Cangjun Lake, I'm just passing by. If Du doesn't insist on letting me do anything, I won't be happy to come in. One-five-ten, say Tell me about the inside story of Suijia City that you know. If there is something that I know that you know, but you know it and pretend not to know it, then I will have to sum it up with his wife, who deliberately put it in her sleeve. That sparkling cup is actually a natal object used to carry things like ecstasy soup and peach blossom luck, right?"

The canal owner's wife smiled uglier than crying.

This guy is obviously a hundred times more difficult to deal with than Du Yu!

The owner's wife was very frightened and told all the troubles that the neighbor had caused in the city.

While Chen Pingan listened to her story, he quietly noticed the expressions of the two maids out of the corner of his eye.

The City God who accompanied him to the city was indeed about to have his golden body collapsed, and he had reached the end of the Avenue of Incense and Fire. The so-called end of the road was nothing more than that. But just like that person who was afraid of death, the City God was no exception. He tried every means, first of all, he tried to smoothen the relationship, spent all his savings, and asked the court for an edict that went beyond the rules of etiquette, but the effect was still not good. This is because Due to an old incident that no one paid much attention to at the time but had a far-reaching impact, a hundred years ago in Suijia City, an unjust case occurred in which a scholarly family was killed. In the end, in the eyes of the court officials and the common people, the injustice was regarded as complete. Seriously, the truth is far from that. At that time, the officials at the Chenghuang Temple did not know that the consequences were so serious, otherwise it would have been a different story.

Cangjun Lake and Suijia City are close neighbors. The Lord of the Lake, who governs one lake, three rivers and two canals, has deep roots, so he knows many inside stories. In that scholarly family, generations of people have done good deeds and accumulated virtues.

, the plaque in the family ancestral hall was about to give birth to a little incense man, but overnight, a misfortune occurred, leaving no chickens or dogs. The City God was furious and ordered all the subordinate officials to investigate the matter. Unexpectedly, in the end, the investigation would be blamed on the City God's Temple itself. It turned out that the chief officer of the Yin and Yang Department, headed by the Sixth Division of the City God's Temple, as the first assistant to the City God, was involved with the City God's temple. The Shackles General, whose duties are similar to those of a county lieutenant, colluded with each other. One of them turned into a human form without authorization, put on the skin of a handsome young man, and seduced and bullied the women of that family, while the Shackles General fell in love with the not-yet-complete girl. The condensed incense villain hoped to use it to bribe a monk from the Xian family, and tried to go to the Chenghuang Pavilion in Zhoucheng to serve and be promoted to a military judge above all departments under one person. The shackles general threatened the chief officer of the Yin and Yang Department. Two officials of the City God's Temple who were supposed to help a county maintain good weather and orderly Yin and Yang, jointly invited a group of gangsters who were roving to commit crimes into the city, and bloodbathed the scholarly family. The chief officer of the Yin and Yang Department secretly hid two beauties. Wife, the golden house hides her beauty in a secluded mansion in the countryside outside the county town.

If that was the case, even if the City God showed slight favoritism and lightly sentenced the two assistant officials, he would not be in such a state today. The City God, who was good at fishing for fame during his lifetime, openly asked the ghost officials to help the government find him. He killed the gangsters on the spot without leaving a single person alive, then secretly spared the chief officer of the Yin and Yang Division, and killed the shackles general whose elbows were turned outwards. As for the two women, they naturally could not escape death, but Unexpectedly, there was a child from that scholarly family who happened to be playing hide-and-seek with the maid in the house and hid in the wall. The maid was loyal to protect the master and deliberately died near the wall, covering the entrance with her body. The child finally managed to escape from Suijia City. More than ten years later, with the help of a senior family friend, he was able to change his name and household registration. He was ranked second in high school. In another ten years, his official career went smoothly and he became a county parent official. He began to reverse the case and follow the clues. He found the City God's Temple, and then naturally there was another tragedy. But compared to the time when everyone knew about it, this time, it was silent from beginning to end. The only news the court learned was that a The loyal county governor died of illness and took office.

The scholar who was supposed to have a bright future never married a wife in his life, and he had no bookboys or maids around him. One of them came to office alone, and the other ended up dead. He seemed to have long been aware of the danger in the city. Before he secretly sent a secret letter to his friends in the DPRK and China, he had already regarded death as home. Finally, on that day, he went to the mansion that had been an abandoned ghost house for many years. In the night , the man took off his official robe, put on sackcloth and mourning, offered incense and kowtowed, and then... he died.

In fact, before he walked out of the governor's house, the ghost officials from the City God's Temple had already surrounded the entire government office. The God of Day and Night himself acted as the "door god", and there were even civil and military judges hiding in the government office. All around, people are watching eagerly.

So late that night, as this person walked all the way from the government office to his former residence, there was not even a watchman, not to mention pedestrians on the road.

After the City God of Suiji City eliminated the root cause, three years later, he discovered that a crack began to appear in his golden body.

All the accumulated virtues could not make up for this crack, and I could only watch it spread more and more to the golden body.

Hence the present vision of Suijia City.

Chen Ping'an had been listening quietly, and then the wife of the canal owner, with a slightly gloating tone, came to the Chenghuang Temple in the city with a final conclusion, "It is your own fault that you will not survive, but the words they are most familiar with in the Chenghuang Temple are really funny. In the Chenghuang Temple in Suijia City, there is also a large stone abacus to warn the world that people are doing things and gods are doing things."

Chen Ping'an finally asked: "Did the City God's Temple intercept the secret letter sent to the capital?"

The wife of the canal owner shook her head and said: "Reporting to the Immortal Master, according to my Lord Hu, the prefect acted very carefully, and he indeed sent it to his friends in the capital. But for some reason, it was like a mud cow sinking into the sea. After so many years, the imperial court had no idea about this. However, the person who received the letter had a smooth official career. He became the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. Later, his family became prosperous, and his descendants had excellent academic and literary fortunes. There were as many as six Jinshis alone. The current head of the family is also in charge of the government. A frontier official from one side."

Chen Ping'an asked again: "Why did so many Taoist cultivators rush to Suijia City together with this Du? Is it possible that the City God of Suijia City, so glorious and graceful, has made so many achievements in the mountains?" Friends, do you want to help the City God Temple?"

The canal owner's wife, who had been obediently staying in place, lowered her voice, raised her head and said: "The feng shui of Suijia City is quite strange. After the turmoil in the City God's Temple, it seems that there is no way to keep a rare treasure. Every time there is a full moon, heavy rain and heavy snow, At night, there will be a treasure light in the county and city, and an angry bullfight will appear from a prison. Over the years, many experts from the mountains have gone to investigate, but they have not been able to catch the treasure. At the beginning, some experts in Kanyu speculated that it was a treasure of heaven and earth that had been nurtured by the luck of the state's mountains and rivers for thousands of years. As the resentment in Suijia City became too heavy and lingered, it did not want to go back. Only when we stay in Suijia City will there be signs that the treasure will appear."

Chen Ping'an narrowed his eyes and asked again, "I just asked your wife casually, and I learned so many shocking truths, and then so many capable people and strangers, after so many years, came one after another. Flying back and forth in that accompanying city, there may be many monks who have taken root in the city for many years, but there is no immortal master who tries to reverse the case for that family?"

The canal owner's wife was in a daze this time, and it was not a fake, and then she murmured: "What are you doing to overturn the case? If you go against the Chenghuang Temple, won't you lose that rare treasure even more?"

Chen Pingan took off his bamboo hat, looked up at the night sky, and scratched his head, "This is a very reasonable statement."

There were some noises on the wall behind the temple altar.

The owner's wife felt a breeze blowing against her face and suddenly turned her head to look.

The altar was split in half by the man's impact, and dust flew into the air. Du Yu, the Ghost Ax Palace, who had secretly woken up and wanted to make some moves, was grabbed by the neck with one hand and smashed into the ground.

When the man stood up, Du Yu had lost his vitality and could no longer die.

At that moment, the owner's wife, as a water goddess, felt as cold as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

The man turned sideways and looked at her.

His face was expressionless.

His eyes are as dark as an ancient well, as if there is a dragon swaying deep in the water, trying to climb up the well wall, sticking his head out to take a look at the world outside the well.

The owner's wife wanted to take a step back and hide further, but her feet were stuck in the ground, so she had to lean back. It seemed that this was the only way to avoid being frightened to death.

But for some reason, the next moment, the man suddenly smiled, stood up, clapped his palms, put on the bamboo hat again, stretched out two fingers, held it up, and said with a smile: "The monks on the mountain are not stained by the world of mortals, and are not stained by cause and effect. , it’s a matter of course.”
