Daxia Lingxian

Chapter 68 Two Acquaintances
Luo Ning was a little speechless when he heard Tongyan Shaman's words.

"My lord, I dare not hide from you." Tongyan Shaman said in a Xianbei language that only Luo Ning could understand, "The timing of divination is not always available."

"Only when the gnosis has a feeling, can divination be accurate."

"There are nine kinds of divination results, great auspiciousness, great ominousness, minor auspiciousness, minor ominousness, flat hexagram, empty hexagram, change hexagram, good luck before bad luck, bad luck before good luck."

Luo Ning understood.It turned out that her divination could not be carried out all the time, and it was inherently uncertain.

There are also empty hexagrams with unknown results, and changes of ominous and treacherous hexagrams.

"My lord, I don't dare to hide from you." Murong Lingbei continued, "As long as I fully survive the disaster at the age of 20, my gnosis will be stronger, and I can divination more and more accurately."

"At that time, I will definitely repay and help you."

Luo Ning said in the Xianbei language given by Ling Daozhu:

"My Tongyan Shaman, I don't care how much you help me, I just hope you can survive the disaster and live a good life."

"My Tongyan Shaman, my wish for you is like a blessing for my relatives. Relatives stand in front of you with open arms in front of jackals, not for you to help him herd horses and sheep, nor for your milk tea .”

Luo Ning's words were not hypocritical, they were more or less from the bottom of his heart.

If it was for the benefit of accepting Murong Lingbei at the beginning, then now he sincerely hopes that Murong Lingbei will survive the catastrophe without asking for anything in return.

The child-faced shaman, who looks twelve, but is actually 20 years old, was very moved when he heard the words, and said with tears in his eyes:

"My lord, you are my Murong Lingbei's relatives. When I see my lord's happiness, I feel like seeing my father's smile. When I see my lord's worries, I feel like I see my lord's troubles."

Everyone couldn't understand what the two said, but they could also see Murong Lingbei's gratitude and respect to Luo Ning.

After passing the jealous wife Jin without any risk, Luo Li immediately got into the carriage and recorded in the pamphlet:

"May Ding Chou, who was jealous of his wife. He worshiped the evil god Mrs. Duan, blackmailed my elder brother for eight liang of Yinde, almost beheaded my elder brother, ghost Hongxiu..."

outside the car.

Guitu Hongxiu cried and said, "If it weren't for the master, this disciple would have lost his soul, hey..."

"I don't know what kind of grass grew in that grassy little tomb of my apprentice, but it has been taken care of by Master..."

While expressing her admiration, the female ghost floated in front of Luo Ning's horse to relieve Luo Ning's heat.

"Okay, okay." Luo Ning still felt sorry for this ghost student, "Your ghost body is not solid yet, so you shouldn't stay in the sun for too long, go back to the card of dwelling soul."

"Red sleeve!" Luo Li stretched out his small head from the carriage, "I'm so hot, you come to the carriage to accompany me! Help me cool down!"

"Understood, Senior Aunt!" Hong Xiu originally wanted to stay outside for a while, and didn't want to go back to the Roosting Soul Card. Hearing what Little Senior Aunt said, he immediately let out a ghostly laugh and floated into Luo Li's carriage.

"It's so cool! It's overpowering!" Luo Li immediately smiled, and threw the round fan in his hand.

The little black dog, which had been sticking out its tongue under her feet, saw the red-clothed ghost coming in, and immediately leaned towards the female ghost to cool off.

Cows are afraid of heat.The old man who followed the carriage also got a little light, and it wasn't so hot anymore.

Inside Su Chuo's carriage, Lu Pianpian was still furious.

"Traitors! They are all traitors to the True Si Sect!"

"When I regain the position of leader, I must clean it up!"

His tone was murderous.

The Zhensi Sect actually started colluding with Lingguan to sell Yinde ointment, which touched her bottom line.

In her opinion, even the devil has a way!
The ultimate purpose of Zhensi Sect is to gather forces against the imperial court, overthrow the imperial court, build a real paradise on earth, and create the legendary heaven.

Instead of colluding with corrupt officials and killing all beings together!
How can such a degenerate Zhensi religion win against the imperial court?In the end, it just became a knife used by the court!

"Don't be angry." Su Chuo said, "When you are angry, my chest hurts. You should think about how to get back your body."

"Didn't you say that you have a stronghold in Tubo? It is very likely that you will meet your subordinates."

Lu Pianpian said: "They were my father's subordinates in Xiuyi Mansion back then, and they stayed with my father in Tubo. They are not my subordinates, so they may not listen to me."

Su Chuo said: "That's right. You're already like this. It's very difficult for those monks who have been eagle dogs to obey. They won't believe that you and I are one."

"It's not impossible to betray you."

Lu Pianpian was silent for a long time, and said, "Maybe I really messed up my game."

……

Walking through villages and villages all the way, we entered the Ancient Tea Horse Road in a few days.

The Ancient Tea-Horse Road winds its way through mountains and rivers, and the terrain is getting higher and higher.

But seeing the continuous ups and downs of Nuri Mountain, soaring into the clouds, birds can't fly, and there is a mournful and distant cry of apes.The Yacang River is mighty, emptied by the waves, and the opposite bank is vast, I don't know how wide it is.

The Chilong Pass not far away is like a giant dragon hovering between mountains and rivers, and a few eagles soar between the mountains, adding to the sense of vastness.

Seeing that the scene became more and more magnificent, everyone couldn't help being shocked.

It took more than two months and traveled three thousand miles, and finally came to the border from Tuo County.

After passing the Chilong Pass in front, it is the area controlled by the Tubo people.The territory under the jurisdiction of Daxia Yizhou Mu also came to an end.

"Good mountain, good water! Magnificent!" Luo Ning couldn't help reciting:
"People cross the tea-horse road, eagles fly to Chilong Pass. The sound of apes scares travelers, and smoke rises from the river. The home and country are far away, and the wind and rain are in the Luo family. Going west to the end of the world is cold, and the return date does not know the year."

Hearing this, Su Xian couldn't help nodding his head and said: "Brother, this poem comes from the bottom of my heart, expresses my heart directly, and makes people feel supremely deep."

When everyone heard this poem, they looked back at the way they came from, but they couldn't help but feel a little sad when they saw the mountains and rivers and the storm.

This time, it is not certain whether he will return.

Although the Ancient Tea-Horse Road is located in a remote place, there are many passers-by, and caravans entering and leaving Tubo can be seen from time to time.On both sides of the ancient road, there will be post stations, inns, and restaurants every few tens of miles.

Pedestrians on the ancient road include Xia people, Tubo people, Qiang people, etc., but they can also keep the water in the well without disturbing the water in the river.

Although Daxia and Tubo are enemy countries, they have a tacit understanding in terms of trade. The frontier troops of both sides consciously maintain the smooth flow of the ancient tea-horse road.

Therefore, although the Ancient Tea Horse Road is a mixed bag, it is still safe.

Every caravan is escorted by monks.

Most of the monks in the Tubo caravan are lamas.While escorting the caravan to Yizhou to sell Tubo goods, those lamas went to Yizhou to teach the Dharma.

The monks of the Qiang people and Nanzhao caravans are mostly shamans and witches.

Especially the Gu cultivators, who seem to have a strange aura.Gu Cultivation originated in Nanzhao, so there are many Gu Cultivators among Nanzhao monks.

There are several monks in Luo Ning's group, and they are quite powerful, so no one else provokes them.

Those who can be caravan bodyguards are generally low-level monks, at most seventh rank.

When it comes to rank-[-] masters, even big figures who are either rich or expensive are rare in the Jianghu.

But soon, a caravan caught Luo Ning's attention.

The cargo of the caravan is people.

Two to three hundred young women, including many little girls, were crammed into the carriage with sallow and emaciated faces.

This is a human trafficking caravan!

The banner of the caravan is a word Xue.

Luo Ning was very familiar with this banner, it was the banner of Xue's firm.

The Xue family is a hereditary baron, a noble family in Emei, and the richest man in Tuo County.The reason why the Xue family is so rich is of course not only the tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, but also the family caravan.

But it was the first time Luo Ning knew about Xue's "population business". When he was in Xue's residence, he only knew that Xue Bingyu was in charge of Xue's illegal business.

The leading monks escorting Xue's caravan turned out to be two acquaintances.

One is Xue Xunjian who fled facing the bandits in Shiqiao Town, and a martial artist at the beginning of the eighth rank.

The other one is Xue Bingyu's brother-in-law, Xue Zhirou's fiancé, Zhuo Yun, a Taoist cultivator with a perfect eighth rank!
Luo Ning was a little strange.When I met Zhuo Yun in the Xue Mansion before, even Xue Bingyu flattered him, because he was not only an eighth-rank Taoist cultivator, but also a direct descendant of the Zhuo family, a noble family in Emei.

Zhuoyun is a person with eyes on the top of his head.Back then when he saw himself, he was looking at the air.

How could such an arrogant nobleman personally escort the caravan of the Xue family?
Even if these hundreds of young women were sold to Tubo, they would only cost a few thousand taels of silver at most. How could it be worth his trip, Mr. Zhuo?
There must be something strange about it!

That Zhuoyun didn't pay attention to Luo Ning at all.He rode forward, leading the huge Xue family caravan in a hurry, and soon left the Luo family class behind.

Obviously, he was on his way.

Luo Ning suddenly thought about it.

Xue's business is very dark, but I have never heard of a business of trafficking in women before.

Even if the Xue family trafficked people, Zhuo Yun would not be held responsible.

"These women are pitiful, they will be eaten again." Qian Sisuan said.

"To be eaten?" Luo Ning frowned, "Didn't she be sold to a Tubo nobleman as a female slave?"

Qian Sisuan shook his head, "It's not bad to be a slave girl. They are sacrifices, offering sacrifices to the Lord of the Corpse Forest."

"The Xue family's caravan brought so many women to sacrifice to the Lord of the Corpse Forest. It's not a small attempt."

"Master of the corpse forest?" Luo Ning was confused.

It was the first time he heard these four words.
