Chapter 498 Two-legged retribution, meeting at the tea house
Zhang Wenfeng stared at a yellowed file with a blank expression. He read just a few lines for a long time.
After a while, Zhang Wenfeng closed the file and handed it back to the village elder who was sitting across from him with a smile on his face. "Please send someone who is familiar with Qianyanshan Village to go with me to handle the case," Zhang Wenfeng said.
"Yes, yes, sir, please wait a moment."
Xiangqi stood up quickly and whispered a few instructions to a man in his thirties standing guard outside the door.
Before leaving the town office, Zhang Wenfeng said casually: "Don't let anyone know about this. Anyone who knows about it should keep their mouths shut."
"I understand, I understand. Please rest assured, sir, not even a word will be spread."
The village elder bowed down, watched the unknown adult go away, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, there were many adults, so he didn't blame him. Alas, it's hard for people like them below to do things.
The mountain road was rugged and winding, and it took half an hour to arrive at Qianyan Mountain Village.
After receiving the instructions, You You walked to the village and went to find the village chief and Li Zheng to find out what happened to Shang Baoxi's daughter-in-law who died of illness twelve years ago. When dealing with mountain people, the young and powerful You You was very experienced and guaranteed to be able to
Dig out the truth from the old fox's mouth.
As for whether Shang Baoxi's family is in trouble, it's none of his business.
Zhang Wenfeng did not go to the closed mountain village. He walked into the forest and stood behind a big tree. He disappeared without a trace. Since he met the reincarnated soul of his sister in the vast sea of people, how could he feel at ease if he didn't do something?
?
The sun is setting, and smoke is rising from the village.
Chickens and dogs heard each other, and the sound of a woman calling her child home could be heard from one end of the village to the other.
Zhang Wenfeng silently listened to the chatter between You You and the village chief. They talked in circles, made mixed threats, and other lower-class methods of doing things, and slowly he heard the ideas.
A cliché story about an evil mother-in-law who oppresses and abuses her daughter-in-law. The family is so cruel that no one in the village can stand it.
In the middle of winter, my daughter-in-law, who was as skinny as a stick after five years of hard work, dragged her frail and sick body up the mountain to cut firewood. The icy road rolled steeply down the hillside, and she died silently and was lighter than firewood.
It had been dark for a long time, so Youyou carefully wiped the oil and water from the corners of his mouth and returned to the trail outside the village.
Zhang Wenfeng did not let You You repeat the tragic story again. He took out ten taels of silver notes, said "Thank you" to You You, and sent You You, who was rubbing his hands but didn't dare, to take the bank notes and return to the village to stay overnight.
"Don't worry, adults. They don't dare to say nonsense. I'll leave you, villain!"
You You took the banknote and felt awe-struck.
This gentleman had great supernatural powers and listened to all the conversations he had with the village chief and Li Zheng.
The sight of him and the village chief wandering around that lonely grave was noticed by the adults. Fortunately, he didn't cheat or complain behind his back. He would have to give the two old guys a hard beating when he gets back later. If he doesn't want to get into trouble, he should keep his mouth shut.
Tight.
Zhang Wenfeng walked up the back hill and stayed for a while in front of a solitary grave that was almost flattened by weeds.
After death, he has been reincarnated, and there is no anger or sadness in his heart. He only feels pity for his sister who passed away in misery in the world in her previous life.
Leaving behind a sigh, he flew up, and when he fell down again, he arrived at a dilapidated stone-walled courtyard in the village. He walked slowly. There was no oil lamp in the house, and he occasionally coughed twice.
Walking to the east kitchen, Zhang Wenfeng stepped on the door with a cold expression, making a shallow depression on the ground at the door.
This kick is retribution for that evil mother-in-law. From now on, she will be plagued by all kinds of bad diseases, and her life will be worse than death.
Some Maoshan tricks he learned in his previous life, plus his ability to "see Qi" with his spiritual eyes, the good ones may not work, but the bad ones are definitely no problem.
Walking to the firewood gate, he made a horizontal line on the ground with his feet to cut off the family's already bleak and meager fortune.
I am poor and sick, so take your time.
He shouldered the evil karma he committed on his own initiative, and he had no regrets even if it was a loss.
The cheerful voice of "Brother, brother" seems to be echoing in my ears. It is a distant memory.
He jumped into the air and headed northwest.
Early the next morning, Zhang Wenfeng appeared near Baihu Ridge, which was shrouded in formations. He looked at the lush hills in the distance and said with a smile: "Lu Xin'er, Lu Chan'er, you can't hide yet, can you? Open the door quickly."
Some formation ripples appeared in the air.
Several little charms appeared, including Green Chan'er and Hua Fenglan in a pink skirt. They danced gracefully to welcome the visitor, shouting: "Master, it's not a coincidence that you came. My sister came back a few days ago and went into retreat.
"
"Oh, then I won't go in."
"That's not possible...Master, you are teasing me again."
Lu Chan'er fell on the shoulder of the viewer and said with a smile: "I have been waiting for you to come for a long time. Baihu Ridge has changed a lot now. All the dead places have been resurrected. Except for the place, it is a little smaller, but it is enough. It has a radius of more than thirty miles.
, if we spend more time, we can take care of another grassy ridge."
The little fairy invited the viewer into the territory and flew up the mountain.
Tu Kun helped them arrange the mountain gate formation in this area, and they added many water and wood formations.
It took almost three years to use secret methods of vegetation to turn this barren mountain into half a blessed land.
I walked around Baihuling where the wood energy was active and the spirit energy was abundant. I looked around at the green jade and flowers. There were cute and exquisite little spirits flying around me. The clear singing sounded to my ears, and Zhang Wenfeng felt a little gloomy in his heart.
The smoke disappeared.
"I'm going to take a look at that elm tree. It's so tall."
Zhang Wenfeng fell to the west hillside, where there were more than ten elm trees of various sizes. The tallest elm tree among them turned its green leaves and made a rustling sound toward humans.
"So spiritual?"
Zhang Wenfeng smiled and cast the "Nourishing Vitality Spell", releasing green mist, allowing the elm trees to enjoy the vitality and nourishment of wood energy.
After staying in Baihu Ridge for a long time, he asked Hua Fenglan and another Green Zhinian Jingmei to accompany him to visit the Fairy Spirit Temple.
Lu Chan'er couldn't leave and had to protect her sister.
…
In a blink of an eye, it has been more than ten days since Wei Jingjie, five men and one donkey arrived in Dingxi City. They had already changed out of their Taoist robes and put on neat and elegant clothes that did not reveal their identity.
Shi Nanguan and Tie Jinlin went out almost every day, wandering around teahouses and restaurants, listening to gossip.
Wei Jingjie occasionally went out with Yan Jing and Shang Qingyun to get familiar with the situation here.
There are many monks from different Taoist temples in the border towns, and the inheritance is incomplete. They are not taken seriously when seeking employment in the local Taoist branch. They heard the news and called friends to come to seek help. After several years of baptism on the battlefield, they did not leave, and they can still survive.
Most of them advanced to the gradually declining realm and became cultivators who didn't want to go back.
In recent years, all major sects have sent disciples to come here for training.
The border town has become a mixed place.
After a while, Yan Jing and Shang Qingyun were able to go out alone. Their cultivation was sufficient, and they were equipped with talismans and protective weapons. As long as they were thick-skinned enough, they dared to scold them in person, or ignore the gossip.
It's not a big deal actually.
After all, it is a border town, with patrolling monks and rules to control it, so no big moves are allowed.
On this day, while Yan Jing was practicing in Shang Qingyun, she said hello to the captain and said that she had some personal items that she needed to buy. She went out alone, put on a face covering and walked towards the east of the city.
Dingxi City is about seven or eight miles long and wide. There are various shops and it is lively during the day and night.
Walking into a teahouse on the main street, Yan Jing sat down and before ordering tea, a handsome young man wearing a white robe came up with a smile, called "Junior Sister Yan, long time no see", sat down at the empty seat opposite, and waved to the waiter Serve a nice pot of tea.
Yan Jing looked a little unnatural and asked in a low voice: "Gu... Fellow Taoist Gu, why are you looking for me alone?"
What she saw was Gu Chaowen, who had been away from Xianlingguan for more than four years and looked very talented.
