Chapter 95 94. Construction of the secret realm, two identities (3.1K words - please subscribe)
A few days later.
“Aw, aw, aw~~~”
The shrill pig squealing sounded on the top of the cliff.
But the sound quickly faded and then disappeared.
Song Yan stabbed him to death with a swift motion, then carried a bucket to collect the fresh pig blood. Then he skillfully peeled the skin and cut the meat. After hanging the pig skin aside, he began to process the meat.
Coincidentally, after being robbed by thieves a few days ago, they took a look at the top of the mountain and found the robber's den, so they pretended to be a gangster and robbed the thief's hilltop.
Speaking of it, this den of thieves is really rich, so they have pigs, sheep, pots and pans, and a lot of wine.
Although these wines are not as good as the fine wines in the city, most of them are home-brewed in the villages and mountains, and most of them contain fruit wine, which has a unique flavor.
Song Yan built a pig pen and a sheep pen, and kept enough pigs and sheep. The males and females lived separately, and they would be brought together every now and then to mate and give birth. Today, he first tried his hand with a pig. .
In the evening, in addition to cooking ribs and broth, he also made pig skin shadow puppets. After successfully seeing the message "[You have absorbed the remaining life span of a pig: 10 years]", Song Yanze continued Make. But he never turned it into a living shadow puppet by summoning spirits. Instead, he changed it into "spicy pig skin" and also made a "pig skin jelly" to go with wine.
“It turns out to be Mr. Li”
Mrs. Ling looked at those familiar dishes in astonishment.
Song Yandao: "Didn't I tell you before?"
"No."
Mrs. Ling had thought that Song Yan had sneaked into the secret team, but she didn't expect that he was actually Mr. Li.
She may not know much about the people in the Flying Knife Gang, but before that she went there for Mr. Li's famous craftsmanship, and she knew more or less that Mr. Li was a kind and honest man. The locals specialize in pork rind and barbecue, and it is considered a time-honored restaurant.
This.
It turns out to be Brother Dao Song.
"Come, sit down. After eating, you still have to go on your way." Song Yan put the food on the table, sat down carelessly, and gathered the chopsticks made from the trees in this secret realm.
Because of the characteristics of the "Night Candle Soul Insect", Mrs. Ling always traveled at night and rested during the day, even in this wilderness of the extreme south.
Mrs. Ling sat down, took a bite of the spicy pig skin, picked up a piece of skin jelly, praised it, and then drank the soup.
The two sat opposite each other, looking at each other, both speechless.
At this moment, memories from many years ago are evoked.
At that time, he and she were still in Tianyun City, and there were four birds in the house. Four Birds made mutton soup. The soup was delicious and warm, just like this pork rib soup.
It's a pity that things and people have changed, and their identities have undergone earth-shaking changes. They are no longer Jianghu people, but monks.
Fortunately, we are still on the same path.
Mrs. Ling said: "Brother Dao Song, I heard that Mr. Li is an old man who has taken root in Chaoli County, but Chaoli County has no profound energy at all. How do you practice on weekdays?"
Song Yan took out a handful of black crystals and sprinkled them on the table, and said: "I made a lot of shadow puppets in Puppet Peak before, but later they were all replaced with black crystals."
"That's it."< br>
Mrs. Ling said, "Brother Taoist, you are really cautious in your actions. It's just..."
She glanced at Brother Song's pig pen and sheep pen, as well as the wild boar, wild wolf, bear and blind man running by the river under the cliff. Waiting, some people couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Brother Tao, don't you need to make leather to raise these?" Love, I’m used to it.”
Mrs. Ling suddenly remembered the scene when Song Yan fought with Grandma Zhu that day, controlling ten shadow puppets with both hands, and finally defeated Grandma Zhu in one fell swoop using a powerful spell. Fangxin moved secretly and sighed: "Perhaps only someone as obsessed with a skill as Brother Dao Song can have such profound attainments." ’
She had a great opportunity and accidentally merged the idea of a powerful insect cultivator, but Brother Dao Song relied on his own hands to get here. Thinking of this, Mrs. Ling couldn't help but admire her even more.
As the two of them were eating, Mrs. Ling suddenly said: "Brother Tao, it's almost summer now, the days are long and the nights are short, and it's not dark yet. In order to save some time, why don't you and I cultivate together, and then I go out on my way, How about it?"
Song Yan said: "That's fine."
After dinner
In the cabin.
Long time
"Brother Dao, are you ready?" Madam Ling's dignified and calm voice suddenly came.
Song Yan asked: "What about you?"
Mrs. Ling said coldly: "My little sister has been pressing down, waiting for Brother Dao."
Song Yan said: "Come on .”
A moment
Mrs. Ling arranged her clothes comfortably, put on her ghost mask, left the secret realm, and continued on her way.
Originally running for her life, coupled with Grandma Zhu’s sharp blade hanging high above her head, her mentality was distorted to a certain extent. But now. In such a peaceful dual cultivation and life, her mentality has changed. Gotta be gentle.
Going west along the edge of the Southern Wilderness, we finally arrived at a city on a scorching day in midsummer.
This city is called Linwu City. It is extremely deserted, but it is the place with the most people in these ten miles and eight villages.
Further west from Linwucheng, there is a vast and lofty mountain known as the "One Hundred Thousand Mountains".
The mountain is high and the terrain is steep, and it is also the only passage to Xishu. This winding, long and difficult road is called "Pansi Mountain Road" by the locals.
Because they will enter the Snake Corpse Market later, the two plan to do some supplies here.
This supply is mainly needed by Song Yan.
He plans to buy some more pigs, sheep, horses and the like, and keep them in the secret place, and at the same time buy some daily necessities such as tea, rice, oil, salt and wine.
At that time, it will be transported outside the city by car and the whole thing will be put into the secret place, so that no one can notice it.
The two of them were walking on the Linwu Mountain City Road. Compared with the towns in the north, this place is really primitive with stalls placed at the roadside. There are many beautiful little gems and sun-dried stones on the stalls. Mushrooms, unknown grass bundles, animal horn products, etc.
Soon, Song Yan negotiated with a family and prepared to pick up some cattle, sheep, and horses.
Just as he was talking, a woman's scream suddenly came from the street, and the people setting up stalls seemed to have long been accustomed to it. They just frowned, grimaced, lowered their heads, and said, "Look at the nose, look at the nose." heart".
Song Yan asked: "What's wrong?"
The person who was doing business with him hurriedly pulled him and said: "Young man, although your companion is wearing a ghost mask, she must be a beautiful woman, right? With such a figure, even a black robe can't hide that uncle. In other words, hide now. No, it’s coming!”
As he said that, the old man hurriedly ran into the house.
Song Yan listened to the advice, pulled Mrs. Ling's hand, and got into the old man's home.
His consciousness let go and passed over.
On the street, I saw a man with black cloth around his eyes, smelling of alcohol, chasing him with a wild smile, shouting things like "Beauty, don't run away".
In front of her, there was a little lady running in terror with her clothes torn to pieces and her crisp silk pocket half exposed.
But even though the man's eyes were wrapped in black cloth, his perception was extremely keen. No matter how softly the little lady tried to hide, he could always chase her.
Finally, the cat and mouse drama is over.
The man staggered and threw the little lady to the ground and started doing it in the street.
No one dared to look, but they also did not dare to move. They could only pretend that they did not exist and continue to shout about buying and selling.
Song Yan's expression condensed.
Because, he could see at a glance that this man, even though there was no trace of Xuan Qi left in his body, was actually in the realm of "sixth level of Xuan Lian", and although his postures and movements were unorganized, he was still vaguely capable. I saw a bit of the Southern Wu Jianmen technique.
Song Yan really didn't expect that he would meet such a person when he was about to leave Nanwu.
He became interested.
Bai Xiuhu was originally a native of Linwu City, a small town on the edge of Nanwu. With his talent and a chance, he became a disciple of Nanwu Jianmen, and later helped his father become a The lord of Linwu City.
He attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and gets along well with his Jianmen brothers. Every time he drinks, he says he is worthy of his heart and his friends, and he is both sincere and courageous.
But since the Puppet Sect and the Nanwu Jianmen broke out, battles between the monks broke out frequently.
As a sixth-level cultivator of Xuanxuan, Bai Xiuhu was sent on patrol missions with his fellow apprentices. Then he met a disciple of the Demon Sect at one point, and his fellow apprentice died tragically in a fight. He originally wanted to Go to death, but when the time comes, you find that you are weak. If he took action, there would still be hope for the junior sister who had just been captured, but he was so frightened that he turned around and ran away.
After returning to the sect, he did not say this, and Jianmen incorporated him into other teams.
A few months later, the same scene reappeared.
And he made the same choice.
He didn't even dare to take the sword, turned around and ran away.
His Taoist heart completely collapsed.
He did not return to Nanwu Jianmen, but fled to Linwu City like crazy, and then used his "identity as a monk" and "identity as the son of the city lord" to be domineering and dissolute, in order to vent his anger.
At this time, in the luxurious and secluded courtyard, Bai Xiuhu pressed down on a young lady and abused her cruelly, and then cried nervously: "It's all my fault, it's all mine Wrong.”
The little lady was shivering. After a while, she felt overwhelmed and fainted
Bai Xiuhu's breathing gradually calmed down, he stood up, glanced at the fainted little lady, checked his nose again, and found that she was actually Dead, he was stunned for a moment, and then said coldly: "I'm not wrong, no!"
He was sitting alone in the yard, his expression uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
But no matter what it is, he is the earth emperor in a place like this, and no one can do anything to him.
What if you kill a few random people?
But at this moment, his expression suddenly changed drastically, and a ghostly figure passed by from a distance and then came closer, more than a hundred feet away, and that finger touched his eyebrows from far to near.
"You"
Bai Xiuhu was horrified, but lost consciousness instantly.
After Song Yan absorbed this information, he killed it with one finger, captured its soul, and turned it into a ghost. Then he threw down the shadow puppet of "Grandma Fox" and used it as the "Baixiang Shenyu". A trace of Fafen's soul is on the shadow puppet of "Grandma Fox".
Grandma's shadow puppet transformed into a white embroidered tiger. She stood with her hands behind her hands and murmured coldly in the summer wind: "I am not wrong, I am not wrong."
After doing this, Song Yan glanced at the dead young lady again, sighed softly, and stepped forward to search for her soul. After learning the young lady's information, he did not arrest her soul, but allowed her soul to leave. He took out another fox demon shadow puppet and turned it into the appearance of the little lady and fainted on the ground.
The next day
It was calm.
Song Yan and Mrs. Ling have completed their purchases and set foot on the Pansi Mountain Road to Xishu.
