Chapter One Hundred and Sixty-Eight: Former Fuzhong Slaves, Now Xuan Dao Guards
"The monster must be eliminated, and maybe we can find out the truth about the mountain temple.
You, please go on behalf of the young monk."
Zhou Yi turned his palm over.
The leaves of the elm tree flew out, and after falling to the ground, they turned into a gentle man as gentle as jade.
The young man is wearing a white cloth blouse and a light green cotton robe. He has long flowing hair, sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, red lips and white teeth.
He is very similar to Zhou Yi.
However, one has hair and the other has no hair, they look completely different.
Zhou Yi stared at it complicatedly for a moment, and then looked at the small black characters tumbling out to the side - about an old friend from Wenhe County in the past.
"Yes, he has always been in Guangyuan County. Since it is an opportunity for this boy, we should take him with us on this trip to the mountain temple."
After Zhou Yi finished speaking, he suddenly smiled: "I forgot, you are me. But we really don't look alike at all."
After a moment, Ye Xiaolang returned the smile: "Of course. So, I can eat meat, drink alcohol, save money, and marry a wife?"
"That's good. What a beautiful thought."
…
The junction area between Lepingfang and Wujingfang.
At the end of the long, empty street, three delinquents with superb martial arts skills landed one by one.
The long-faced man at the head looked towards the end of the night with cold eyes. His eyes flashed, and the broad-edged long knife turned into a red stream of light and flew back from a distance.
But it was not sheathed.
Instead, it stood suspended in front of him.
The tip of the knife trembled, making a clear trembling sound.
The other two bad guys subconsciously covered their ears and looked slightly pale.
They are also Qi Sheng warriors in the first stage of Qi sense. Looking at the Tang army, they can be regarded as good players.
But this young bad commander of the county government not only has reached the level of Kaifu in martial arts, but also comes from a famous martial arts family and is good at the art of controlling soldiers. He became the commander-in-chief of a government when he was less than thirty years old.
Although it's secondary.
call out!
Another figure floated down.
The female criminal holding a silver gun came to the three of them.
The young palace commander glanced at her and said, "Junior sister Wei, you are late."
"Sorry, Senior Brother Leng."
Wei Youniang pursed her lips and then asked: "Where is the monster?"
One bad guy sighed: "It got away again."
Another older delinquent said: "This is the fourth time since the beginning of winter that it has appeared in the county. Every time it is attracted by the vitality of people who violate the curfew, and I don't know why."
"But……"
Wei Youniang hesitated and said: "It seems that it has never hurt anyone so far."
The young palace commander snorted coldly: "It's a monster? How can there be no reason not to hurt people? In that broken courtyard just now? If we hadn't stopped it, wouldn't it have almost eaten people? We won't gain anything tonight."
Saying that, his eyes flashed, and the long knife suspended in mid-air turned to the other side.
A bloody strand of armor hung on the blade.
"Although I failed to kill the monster, I have wounded it and left a ray of sword energy in my body. When I turn around and ask the magician to perform the spell, I will find out the forgiveness by taking advantage of the wind. I can find out this ray of sword energy by myself." whereabouts."
"Wonderful. Then we will be able to find the hiding place of that monster."
"The handsome man is still awesome."
The commander-in-chief smiled faintly, his eyes flashed, and the sword flew back into its sheath.
He glanced at the silent junior sister Wei Youniang, and then thought of something.
"Now that there are clues, it's time to cancel the reward posted to the masters of the government army."
…
The freezing cold forced the Qing Dynasty to offer sacrifices, and there was a banquet and a peaceful feast.
After entering the twelfth lunar month, the first major festival of winter will soon come, the Jiaping Festival.
Folks like to give each other fruit wine and souvenirs.
Many traders often rush into the county at this time to drive cattle, carry burdens, and transport goods to earn business opportunities.
West of the city? The corner where Tai'anfang and West Market meet, Changde Restaurant.
In the evening, there is heavy snow on the street, and there are only a few people.
Is there a brazier in the restaurant? It’s steaming hot.
Travelers from all over the world were chatting and laughing, drinking wine, feasting, or flirting with the fat and thin beauty of the Western Qin Dynasty.
On the south-facing side, on a temporary high platform, the storyteller just finished speaking a piece of storytelling and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.
After a short rest, he woke up the wood with a slap.
"As I said last time, during the first year of my Chaotian reign, there were thirty-six knights from the three gangs and four sects of the Seven Elements and Nine Clubs in Guangyuan County. They were all heroes with superb martial arts, capable of defeating lions and tigers, and killing demons and ghosts with their swords.
This time, let’s not talk about the past, but just talk about a major event that happened in our Guangyuan County a few days ago that made all the young and old men applaud!”
When the storyteller said this, he suddenly paused, and his slightly narrowed triangular eyes seemed to open a slit and scanned the more than 20 pear wood round tables facing him.
Seeing the storyteller suddenly whet his appetite, the diners in the audience started to cheer.
"Speak quickly! What's the big deal?"
"Why haven't you heard about the big events happening in the county recently?"
"Isn't it because a big thief suddenly appeared last month, and all the elite soldiers known as Xuandaowei were dispatched to catch the robbers in the outer city?"
"Yeah, who doesn't know about this? The gang industry in the outer city has been in a state of chaos for a long time, and everyone is in danger."
Until the guests in the audience stopped talking.
The storyteller just smiled.
"Although what I am about to say has nothing to do with a robber, it is still a public case.
I wonder if you all remember that in the past there was a county police officer who solved the strange case of hundreds of children being stolen in the county?"
Wherever stories are told, there are bound to be people who admire them.
Immediately someone stood up and sang:
"I remember that he was a policeman from Wenhe County, his surname was Lu."
Everyone in the storyteller nodded slightly and then patted the wood to wake him up.
"Yes, it is none other than Lu Wujiu, the Lu Shenju from Wenhe County.
Perhaps you don't know that this Chief Lu has been serving as the chief arrester of Guangyuan County for more than a month.
Not long ago, he solved another strange case and helped a girl clear her wrongdoing.
What someone is going to talk about today is this one - arresting Mr. Lu, identifying virgins, and solving unjust cases!"
There were bursts of cheers from the audience.
Many guests pricked up their ears and listened to the storyteller telling how Lu Shenzai solved the case while drinking and eating.
"Pfft..."
At the corner of the restaurant near the door, a young soldier with his sword still on his armor couldn't help laughing.
The people at the table with him were also soldiers, wearing military uniforms and carrying swords. They were obviously all soldiers who had just changed their defenses.
And the all-black scabbards clearly show their unique identity-the elite Xuan Dao Guards who are said to be able to compete with dozens of elite soldiers in the government army.
"Boy Wei, just a headhunter to solve a case, why are you so happy?"
"Those who catch fast government officials can only catch thieves. The real big thieves and bandits have to rely on me and other military masters."
"Boy Wei's martial arts skills are impressive, but he is young and tender-faced after all. Come on, after finishing this meal, we will go to Yicui Tower to help Mr. Wei pick a match to avoid loneliness."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The curly-haired young man smiled and sang: "I have always wanted to expand my knowledge, but unfortunately I am short of money. Thank you all brothers for your care.
Having said that, it's not that the story is so exciting, it's just that this new Capt. Lu... Every time he solves a case, he either drinks fake milk, drinks wine in a brothel, or catches someone else's rape.
This time, it’s good, it’s actually ‘find the virgin and solve the cold case’. In the words of my master, you must drive when you encounter strange cases!”
Everyone laughed at the words of the young colleague.
But I quickly came back to my senses.
"Drive? What do you mean?"
"That's right, Mr. Wei, who is your master? Who is a master of which sect?"
"Looking at your martial arts skills, you are really very sharp. But it is extremely powerful. Killing those big thieves is like chopping melons and vegetables."
"It only took you two months to advance from a candidate to a first-class Mysterious Sword Guard. Every time I asked you about your apprenticeship, you refused to tell me. If you don't explain clearly, this drink will be your fault."
"One of the most mysterious martial arts sects in our dynasty is the Bingyu sect. It is said to be able to control thousands of soldiers with its energy, just like the ancient swordsman. It is also closely related to the current national masters."
"By the way, Mr. Wei, why do you have to wear a mask every time you go to catch a thief? Is this also your sect's tradition?"
Facing everyone's questions, Wei Xiaochang smiled and said nothing.
Anyway, after a while, their conversation will shift back to Xia San Road.
He turned his head and looked at the long white street, and his mind couldn't help but think of the monk in white who was in the attic of Xu Mansion half a year ago, smiling and whispering, encouraging him to become a general.
He was also the great benefactor who helped him reborn and gave him a new life.
I heard that Xu Langjun went to Lingnan to be a prefect a few months ago.
Master, where are you now? How are you?
Chang Slave is now the county's first-class Xuan Dao Guard, and is only one step away from being promoted to a ninth-grade primary school.
In the past, I would have never dreamed of it.
Wei Xiaochang raised the wine glass with both hands, quietly raised it in the direction of Wenhe County, and then drank it all in one gulp.
The Xuan Sword Guards couldn't ask further questions, so they all changed the subject.
"Speaking of the Bingyu sect, the new bad guy deputy commander seems to be a disciple there."
"Forget it, that bastard just announced the reward less than half a month ago, and his grandma withdrew it. I just changed my defense, and I'm still thinking of doing some private work."
"Let's not mention the reward. From the description, it is clear that we are looking for the whereabouts of a monster."
"That's right, bad guys can't handle it, so let's spare us half-baked Qigong warriors."
"What a pity, little Weizi. He is a real Qi-sensing martial artist. If he can buy some talismans, he might really be able to catch monsters."
