Although this sounds a bit wrong, Lu Zheng's surprise is serious.
A dozen scholars disappeared in the town at once. No matter how you look at it, most of them should be dead.
Noriko Zhenya has been missing for four days. Logically speaking, it is unlikely that she will survive.
But...
Since he is alive, Lu Zheng doesn’t mind minding his own business. After all, he is just kidnapping some scholars, or at most some little monsters, in a remote town. Little devil, how many Taoist practices can you have?
"It's about ten miles north and west of the town. Where is it?" Lu Zheng asked the innkeeper instead.
When the shopkeeper with a mustache heard this, a hint of fear flashed in his eyes, "A dozen miles north and west of the town?"
"Yes! Lu Zheng nodded, "What, is there a problem?"
The shopkeeper swallowed, "That's the Li Family Fort...it's been abandoned for decades..."
< br /> It is probably the story of a wealthy clan in Xiahe Town a hundred years ago, and then gradually declined, and finally the descendants dispersed and the clan fell into decline.
"It is said that seventy years ago, the last dozen or so people who lived in Lijiapu suddenly disappeared. Then because of the remoteness of the terrain, no one ever visited again. Those who visited occasionally came back. They also said that the place was spooky and scary, not like a kind place..."
"Okay, I got it." Lu Zheng nodded.
He didn’t run away anymore. It’s probably because foreign ghosts found out about this geomantic treasure and occupied it, or the former ghosts of the Li family became successful in their cultivation.
“Let’s go and have a look!”
The four of them said goodbye to the shopkeeper and immediately left the town and headed north.
……
“Where does this ghost come from, how dare you compete with me for a man!” Hu Cainiang curled her lips, she also left her own breath on Ji Zi Zhen’s body, so it stands to reason Generally foreign objects can be seen.
"Qingyan, don't take any action for a moment, let me see how powerful that ghost is!" Hu Cainiang said confidently.
"Okay..." Liu Qingyan agreed but did not insist.
However, just as a few people arrived at a mountain col, they saw a group of people walking out of a ruins not far away.
"Master You? Sister Du?"
The first two turned out to be You Che and Du Huanzhen from Yizhou Town Yisi.
Behind them, there were four or five pale-faced, weak-looking scholars with their feet swaying, and Noriko was really among them.
“Master Lu? "
Du Huanzhen's eyes lit up, he came up to him with a smile, glanced at the three women beside him rather ambiguously, and then winked at Lu Zheng, "Why are you here? "
"Cai Niang? "
Ji Zi really saw Hu Cainiang, tears welled up in her eyes, and she wanted to rush forward, but she almost fell down after taking a step.
Hu Cainiang shook her head helplessly and stepped forward to support her. Him.
“Huh? "Du Huanzhen looked at Hu Cainiang and Ji Zizhen, and then looked at Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng first took Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying to meet them, and then to make a long story short, he probably saw Hu Cainiang and Ji Zizhen. He explained the relationship clearly, and then asked, "How can a mere hundred-year-old ghost come to the rescue of Sister Labor and you and Master You together? "
"It's a misunderstanding. "Du Huanzhen shook his head, "We thought they were from the Southern Xinjiang Goddess Cult. "
"Huh? "
"Recently, southern Xinjiang has been restless, and many sects have sneaked into the Central Plains to cause trouble, including the Goddess Sect. Du Huanzhen said, "The behavior of this ghost is a bit like that of the Goddess Cult. We thought that the Goddess Cult had sneaked into Yizhou, so we came here together, but we didn't expect it to be the case." ”
“Oh! "Lu Zheng nodded.
If it was an invasion from southern Xinjiang, it would make sense.
Gu Yan/span's headquarters is not in Jingchao, so it can be ignored They were messing around without any scruples. Didn’t you see that the Yuansheng Sect came to look for a substitute for the saint, and the Yi Suppression Department was dispatched in large numbers?
The Yuansheng Sect was looking for a substitute for the saint, while the Goddess Sect was looking for a substitute. Looking for men to absorb Yang, why do all of them rely on external objects?
"It's just a hundred-year-old ghost that killed a dozen scholars and was killed by us. These are the ones left, and Yuanyang is also Most of it has been lost, and it won't recover for a year or so. Don't even think about having sex with the same bed. "
Du Huanzhen looked at Hu Cainiang and Ji Zizhen with a hint of meaning.
...
After all, Hu Cainiang and Ji Zizhen would have a romantic relationship one day. , so Ji Zizhen was sent away first.
Lu Zheng and Du Huanzhen sent the scholars to Xiahe Town, and then left together.
"Previous There was the Yuan Sheng Sect, and then there was the Goddess Sect. Do sects from southern Xinjiang often sneak into Dajing? "Lu Zheng asked with some confusion.
"Generally, they are active in a few areas in the south, and rarely go deep into the Central Plains, unless they are not planning to go back, or there are extremely important things, such as the search for the Holy Spirit last time. The woman seizes the body. "
Du Huanzhen introduced, "Although southern Xinjiang is relatively chaotic, andMost of them are at odds with us, but their competition and hatred among each other are not small at all, so the pressure on us is much smaller than that of Northern Xinjiang.
It’s just that Southern Xinjiang is a smog-stricken land, dangerous and sparsely populated. Whether it’s barbarians in the mountains or evil sects, they pose no small threat to ordinary people. "
You Che suddenly said, "There seems to have been an accident in Southern Xinjiang in the past few years. Many important figures died or fell into silence, but they have recovered in recent years. "
Lu Zheng blinked, "Dajing Dynasty doesn't have spies in southern Xinjiang? "
Du Huanzhen said with a smile, "You have read too many picture books, right? The leaders of the major sects in southern Xinjiang are all figures who have practiced Taoism for thousands of years. What happened between them, Who can find out?
You must know that even our Lord of the Zhenyi Division in Zhongjing does not dare to go deep into southern Xinjiang. ”
Lu Zheng couldn’t help but be speechless, okay, it’s Meng Lang, but he didn’t care, after all, what does the matter between the big forces have to do with him, a little layman?
< br /> In addition, Lu Zheng’s eyes flickered. A great man who has practiced Taoism for thousands of years. Is this the upper limit of this world?
Lu Zheng still has many doubts in his heart.
When did the way of cultivation in this world begin?
Are the first group of people or demons who started practicing still alive?
Why is this so? The Fang world is so similar to ancient China, and is there still Buddhism and Taoism?
Do the characters in myths and legends exist? If they exist, where are they?
These questions In modern times, it is actually not a problem, because modern times are a technological society.
Putting it alone in this world, it is actually not a big problem. It is just the ancestor of cultivation.
But this In Lu Zheng's eyes, the problem was huge.
Although there were still many things he didn't understand, Lu Zheng almost subconsciously realized that on the earth and this world, There is a higher existence.
So...
The corner of Lu Zheng’s mouth raised a smile. After looking at it for a long time, it seemed that it was not a dream?
In terms of vision, he may be able to see further than many masters in this world.
What’s more, he is still a genius!
After all...
"Yuyin, when I get stronger, I will take you to see higher scenery to see if there is Fantianyin in this world, and then touch it and see between you and Fantianyin. Who is more powerful! "
Jade seal, "..."
