ninety thousand miles

Chapter 14
At this time, someone among the onlookers recognized Li Chuan and said, "Li Xiucai, it's you! I heard that you were also present when the Taoist priests performed the ritual yesterday?"

Then someone added: "Li Xiucai was invited by a Taoist priest to guard the house and catch demons together. The Taoist said that Li Xiucai has a body of pure yang and a body of literary fortune. Ordinary ghosts can't get close to him!"

Someone else said: "Looks like the rooster has become a demon again!"

Li Chuan took advantage of the opportunity to learn a few words from Daoist Wen, "Yesterday, the Daoist told me that when some ghosts worship, they don't directly reveal their real bodies, but quietly erode luck in the dark, causing restlessness in the house." , resentment abounds."

"It must be the rooster's spirit," said an old man in the crowd: "Carpenter Liu, we usually hire you to do the work. You use solid materials and don't care about money. Why do you insist on taking people's lives just because you lost the chicken? ?”

Another middle-aged onlooker also echoed, "That's right. It's definitely a monster. You too, Boss Wang. It's a happy event to have a baby at home. You don't want to think about the peace of your house, so what are you going to do with your neighbor's chicken?"

At this time, Liu felt annoyed that he was too impulsive, and he felt that he must have been influenced by the chicken demon to do such an irrational thing.

So he took the initiative to walk up to Wang and said, "I was impulsive just now, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that you stole my chicken without evidence."

Wang was also very regretful, and when he got the steps, he followed the trend and said: "I am also confused. If the rooster crows, you can't tie its mouth. Hey, my child will cry a lot at night." Stop, every time I finally get to sleep, the rooster crows and wakes up again. This day and night, I really don’t know what to do, so I blame your chicken. But stealing chickens, I’m absolutely indifferent Can't do it."

Liu said: "I understand, I understand, my son was the same when he was a child, crying night after night, no matter how coaxed."

Seeing that the misunderstanding between the two had been resolved, Li Chuan turned around and wanted to leave with his pig's feet in his hands, but he didn't want someone to grab his sleeve.

Looking back, it was Liu.

Liu said: "Li Xiucai, you are my savior. I want to thank you well. Can I invite you to have dinner at my house tonight and stay overnight?"

Before Li Chuan could answer, Wang also said: "Li Xiucai, if it weren't for you today, I would have died here. I must repay this life-saving grace. Please come to my house tonight."

Is this using him as a town house?

Anyway, it's always good to have someone take care of dinner.

After this dispute was over, Li Chuan's reputation improved in Yunqiao Township. Everyone said that Li Xiucai was reasonable, knew how to deal with affairs, and could manage a house.

So Li Chuan gained the title of "Scholar of Town House".

Any family in the village who feels restless in the house, suspects ghosts, or has some happy event after moving to a new house will invite him to stay for one night.Li Chuan didn't take money either, as long as he had a good meal with good wine and food.

……

When Li Chuan woke up this morning and washed his face, he felt that his face had a little more flesh, and his complexion looked much better.

The strength seems to be stronger.

It's all hard work, eating and drinking.

He turned around and walked out of the backyard, looking at his field from afar.

The days are settled down.

When this year is over, I will rent out the land, and then I will ask Yuanwai Zhang to help me find a job in the city.

When I have free time, I will study the "Jing Jing".

Although Wen Daochang told him bluntly that he has no destiny for the fairy road, these days, he thinks that the "Momental Scriptures" are still very useful, just like his broken iron pot repaired with leaves, now not only There is no water leakage, and the cooked food is particularly delicious. Impurities are filtered out and the original taste is improved.

Later, following the idea of ​​mending holes, he repaired all the damaged parts of the house. Of course, this time, he did not use leaves, but used normal materials. Although he could not tell what had changed after mending, But it's very comfortable to live in, and even when reading, I don't feel sleepy anymore.

No wonder the inheritors of the "Jing Jing" can live to be over 80 years old.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw a pile of straw falling unnaturally in the rice field not far away, and after that, he saw a big bald rooster striding forward.

The more Li Chuan looked at it, the more familiar it became.

Gong Er!

That's right, despite being bald, Li Chuan recognized it, it was Gong Er!
When Gong Er got closer, Li Chuan saw a crab whose shell was almost shattered lying on his body.

It's the next three!
In the blink of an eye, Gong Er stood in front of Li Chuan. He shook his wings and called out sadly, "Scholar, save the third brother! Save the third brother!"

"Brother Gong, don't panic," Li Chuan quickly glanced around, and said after making sure no one was there, "Let's go inside and talk."

With that said, Li Chuan took Gong Er to the yard.

He carefully looked at the appearance of Gong Er and Pang San by the sunlight.

Gong Er was seriously injured, not only his hair was bald, his left wing drooped awkwardly, his paws were broken, and there were clusters of blood on his body.

Pang San couldn't tell whether it was dead or alive at all.

Li Chuan was shocked and asked: "Brother Gong, didn't you go to Xuanshui Mountain to find King Black Horn? Why did you look like this?"

Gong Er said: "It's the monster on Xuanshui Mountain that killed us!"

Under Gong Er's narration, Li Chuan sorted out what happened before and after.

After Gong Er and Pang San separated from Li Chuan, the two monsters went to Xuanshui Mountain, but because they went empty-handed, King Black Horn did not meet them, but asked a steward to separate them and organize them into a small team Go mining, saying that you can learn exercises after you have accumulated enough contribution points.

Gong Er is in the Seventh Squad, and Pang San is in the Sixteenth Squad.

After digging the mine honestly for more than half a month, Gong Er finally had a rest, so he went to look for Pang San, but Pang San disappeared, and the people in the sixteenth team said that they didn’t know who Pang San was. He categorically denied that Pan San was incorporated into their team.

So Gong Er went to find the tiger demon who was in charge of them at the beginning, but the tiger demon also insisted that Gong Er came to Xuanshui Mountain alone at that time, and there was no other party at all.

Gong Er knew that something must have happened to Pang San, and he was already in danger.

He pretended to go back to the resting cave, and then sneaked out while the other monsters were not paying attention.

As soon as he hid himself, he saw the tiger demon in charge, bringing two little monsters over. The tiger demon ordered the two little monsters to attack him tonight and make them quieter.

Gong Er knew that his time was running out.

But he wants to find the third person.He was the one who brought Pang San to Xuanshui Mountain, so he had to take Pang San away, regardless of life or death.

He searched in the mine for a long time. It was very dark in the mine at night. Occasionally, the moonlight passed through the zigzag gaps, casting a little shadow. He didn't dare to call out the name of Pang San. He could only follow his memory and walk all the way. all the way to find.

Fortunately, before dawn, he finally found Pang San in a low puddle, and Pang San was still alive.

There are many checkpoints on Xuanshui Mountain, guarded by monsters, and there are eagle demons patrolling in mid-air.

Gong Er doesn't know magic, can't change, and can't fly, he's just a chicken demon with stronger strength than ordinary roosters.

The only good thing is that the tiger demon's behavior is out of selfishness, he can't mobilize all the little demons to find the public second and third with great fanfare.

Moreover, Xuanshui Mountain is big enough.
