Chapter 159: A visitor from the daughter country
Yanliang Town.
Because the New Year is approaching, lights and colors are everywhere, making it more lively than in previous years.
Mainly because of the [Welcoming Zhongkui] temple fair, thousands of believers were welcomed, and the air was filled with the smell of incense.
Since Zhong Kui conquered demons, there have been very few demons in the Yanshan area.
Nowadays, Yanshan people will carry the statue of Master Zhongkui with them when they leave their hometown, and burn a stick of incense every three days. It is said to be very effective.
“Don’t be afraid of monsters, there is a Zhongkui above your head!”
There was an endless stream of people beating gongs and drums.
The dancing lion walked through the streets shaking its head, and the crowd of onlookers cheered.
In the festive atmosphere, only Wang Xin seemed out of place.
Wang Xin walked through the streets and alleys with a solemn expression, exuding the "keep away from strangers" message all over his body, and quietly walked toward the city gate.
"No, in the city I feel like prying eyes are everywhere."
The moment he was about to leave Yanliang Town, his inner strength surged uncontrollably.
Wang Xin stopped moving forward. The unspeakable danger made Sheng Yingjing act on a whim. He wanted to escape from the town but was unable to do so.
“Is it really a monster?”
He had noticed something strange about himself as early as half a month ago.
The middle Dantian located on the chest has an inexplicable vitality emerging. If you place your palm on the middle Dantian, there is clearly another weak heartbeat that is constantly ringing.
As if a demon is parasitic in the body.
Wang Xin’s spiritual consciousness poured into the middle Dantian, but he could only see nothing.
"We are in big trouble. I hope Shen Lian can return to Yanliang Town as soon as possible, otherwise..."
Wang Xin looked around. All the men were in the same situation. There were heartbeats in the middle Dantian, but they didn't notice it.
In addition to the Yamen, the doctors also knew about the matter, but they were expressly prohibited from spreading it outside.
Wang Xin narrowed his eyes.
"Who would have thought that, including me, all the men in the city can detect the [Happy Vein]? What kind of monster is it? It can make a man without a palace become [pregnant]."
“Could it be related to [Daughter Kingdom], but this cave is thousands of miles away from Yanliang Town.”
Wang Xin grabbed the token at his waist and wanted to report it to the court, but as soon as his consciousness was released, his body and soul became uncontrollably chaotic.
Dong-dong-dong.
The heartbeat in the middle Dantian increased, and there seemed to be an invisible voice whispering in my ears.
Wang Xin's forehead had veins bursting out, and he was unable to carry out simple teleportation. After a long time, he did not give up until his consciousness was exhausted.
He leaned against the wall with all his strength, breathing heavily in frustration.
"It feels more and more like it's not ordinary demons causing trouble, but..."
"Alchemist."
Wang Xin's expression is complicated. Once the alchemist is involved, it will be very troublesome, and he himself has no idea. Don't know the other party's purpose.
Is it because of Shen Lian?
Wang Xin vaguely learned that the imperial court had recognized Yanliang Town as a cave, which meant that the imperial court also knew that there were demons dormant in the city. At the same time, the word Lu Zu was obviously related to Shen Lian.
After all, the Eight Immortals' Theory of Taoism appeared because of Shen Lian.
Wang Xin had viewed the statue of Lu Zu in Cangshan Town some time ago. The appearance was indeed similar to that of Shen Lian. It is said that Lu Dongbin was a land immortal from the Taoist sect three hundred years ago.
“The person who came here is not a good person.”
“The alchemist made arrangements in advance, and it is likely that he is targeting Shen Lian.”
“Every move I make should be under the alchemist’s nose. , try not to alert the enemy, but first understand the other party’s reality.”
Wang Xin hesitated for a few seconds, then walked around the city based on his whim.
He immediately noticed that when he arrived near the Shen family's pawn shop, he had the most violent reaction on impulse, and he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat.
I turned around and looked.
In the lobby of the pawn shop, Shen Hansheng seemed to be entertaining a woman.
The door was ajar, and a graceful woman was sitting at the table, with two strange-looking maids standing beside her.
The woman is twenty-eight years old, wearing gorgeous clothes, and her face is covered by a wisp of gauze.
What makes Wang Xin's hair stand on end is that, except for the woman in the middle, the maids are actually indescribably weird.
Both have two heads.
Shen Hansheng seemed not to notice anything strange, chatting with the woman wordlessly.
Wang Xin was facing a formidable enemy, and he had the impression that the alchemists in the "Daughter Kingdom" had multiple heads. They were even called the multi-headed women in the Jinwu Guard.
"He is indeed an alchemist, and he is not a good person."
After hesitating for a few moments, Wang Xin walked to the door of the pawn shop.
Shen Hansheng asked with a stern look on his face: "Miss Su, I wonder what your family background is like? You should also know from the matchmaker. There is only one child in my family, and he is used to being lazy."
Wang Xin's pupils shrank, why did he feel like... getting married?
Miss Su covered her mouth and chuckled, and the double-headed maid replied: "Miss's family is engaged in the business of buying and selling medicinal materials, which can be found all over the Tang Dynasty. I don't have to worry about the young master being away from home all day long."
< br>
When the maid spoke, the two heads spoke in unison, and their expressions were the same, which showed that the two heads did not have extra souls.
Shen Hansheng nodded with satisfaction.
He continued to ask about the situation at home, and the two-headed maid responded one by one.
It seemed like an ordinary marriage, but Wang Xin found it strange and inexplicable, especially when he felt that the pregnancy in Liujia was getting worse.
The two-headed maid occasionally looked at the mortals around her with greed in her eyes.
Miss Su said: "Mr. Shen, please go and do your work first. The young master should be coming home soon. We will wait in the lobby for a while."
Shen Hansheng looked in a daze and walked away minding his own business.
People came and went in the pawn shop, but they passed by as if they couldn't see the three women.
Wang Xin's consciousness became blurred, and there was a secret technique to erase the relevant memories in his heart, all supported by the whim of the Holy Infant Sutra. His legs gave out and he fell to the ground, vaguely hearing the conversation between the three of them.
"Miss, there is a barbarian from the Tang Dynasty who saw you and me."
"Qing'er, don't pay attention. Don't forget that we came to Shen Lian on the orders of the prime minister to invite him to the Daughter's Kingdom to participate in the baptism. ”
Miss Su licked her lips, showing a hint of unnoticeable excitement.
You must know that the daughter country has never had a prime minister take the initiative to invite someone, and the other party is a Yuandan warrior with delicious meat.
Really interesting.
Wang Xin suppressed his fear and his inner strength became chaotic.
"Miss, he is an outsider. He must get married if he wants to get in touch with his daughter's mother river. I don't know how long he can live in his daughter's country."
The two-headed maid covered her mouth and snickered, "I thought so. Let’s have a taste of Yuandan warriors.”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
Miss Su took a sip of tea, “He is the prime minister’s daughter and son-in-law. Willingly let us share the food.”
"I'm afraid he would love to marry a beauty like the young lady."
The double-headed maid's eyes widened, "I really don't know what's so special about my uncle. Those mortals say he is the reincarnation of an immortal Buddha. , and it’s ridiculous to treat the town as a fairy cave.”
Miss Su said lightly: “Lü Dongbin’s reincarnation and ghosts and gods protecting the Tao are all common folk sayings. The prime minister may think he is... delicious. "
The two-headed maid agreed: "Indeed, otherwise, how could the guardian ghosts and gods not respond at all to the methods we deployed in the city?"
Miss Su scanned the pawn shop.
No matter how you look at it, it is an ordinary store.
Three liang mortals, there are no resources for cultivation in the house. There are some fruits, vegetables and a few banyan trees planted in the backyard.
Miss Su’s eyes lingered on the banyan tree for a few breaths.
The branches and leaves of the banyan tree are withered and yellow, and there are dozens of unknown shriveled fruits hanging on them. It is estimated that they may not survive until the next spring.
She didn’t know it.
Bage and Bone Blade had already left with Shen Lian, and the banyan tree's roots were extended as far as possible toward the Nu River just to be on the safe side.
The body of the banyan tree seems to be sluggish, but in fact, the demonic aura is stored but not released.
The main reason why we did not attack the alchemist was because there was no threat.
Yes, even if they deploy secret agents throughout the city, Banyan Tree will not feel threatened!
Miss Su's mouth showed disdain and she tapped her knuckles on the table.
The prime minister seemed to attach great importance to Shen Lian, and even paid [Tai Sui Che He] to let her open an entrance to the cave in the city.
"It's not necessary at all, it's just a Yuandan warrior."
Miss Su has no intention of wasting the precious Tai Sui Chehe. Yanliang Town has a large population, with more than 20,000 young and middle-aged men. People, all serve as consumables to create entrances and exits.
The double-headed maid said loudly: "The young master is coming."
"Yes."
Blood flowed from Wang Xin's facial features, and he barely retained consciousness on a whim. He then reached out and took out the teleportation talisman from his arms.
"They... what on earth do they want to do?!"
"I must inform Shen Lian, otherwise Yanliang Town will be devastated."
Wang Xin mobilized his inner strength, The internal organs were ignited with flames, the severe pain from the burning stimulated the body and soul, and some strength returned like a flashback.
He held the magic talisman in his hand, ignoring the dangerous spiritual communication of the alchemist beside him.
"Shen Lian, I..."
Pa.
Wang Xin felt severe pain in his back. The two-headed maid spit out magic power and swept away the magic talisman. She stared at Wang Xin with a half-smiling expression.
"Miss, this barbarian wants to ruin our good things."
"Take it to the backyard and kill him, don't stain my eyes."
Miss Su waved her hand.
The two-headed maid suddenly grinned. In order to prevent the court from discovering the arrangement of the daughter country, she had suppressed her appetite for more than half a month.
Although the taste of Jinwuwei is average, it is still okay to just taste it.
The two-headed maid dragged Wang Xin and walked towards the backyard.
“Wait!”
Miss Su stood up and looked at the city gate, muttering to herself: "Something is wrong. The man is approaching Yanliang Town, and I am getting more and more panicked."
"Don't worry, Miss. How can the rumors in Shifang be taken seriously?"
The two-headed maid should have just finished speaking.
Shen Lian happened to step into Yanliang Town, and in an instant, drastic changes occurred in the city.
“Him!!!”
Miss Su's hair stood on end. No matter how she looked at him, Shen Lian was a Yuandan warrior with restrained energy and blood, but why was he threatened with death?
Then she realized how ridiculous her previous idea was.
In a perspective invisible to the naked eye.
“Ah~~”
Mynas flew in the air, and the overwhelming shadows spread out.
Wherever Shen Lian passed, the shadows in the whole city were squirming, and then countless bloody mouths opened, and long and narrow tongues licked greedily.
The banyan tree is full of vitality, its roots are like blood vessels and meridians all over the salt mountain, and the shriveled fruits on the branches are transformed into spiritual fruits with rich medicinal properties.
The ghosts and gods are coming!
The weak retreat! !
