After we got married, I relied on my cheap husband to get promoted.

Chapter 44 Return 2
  After wiping the sword once, Cheng Jiuge returned to the distance. Zhong Lixiu looked at the three pastries left in the box and asked, "Do you still want to eat?"

Cheng Jiuge put the sword back on his waist and said, "I won't eat anymore." He no longer had that appetite.

Zhong Lixiu put the pastries away and said, "Let's take a rest and continue our journey."

"Ah."

The two of them sat under the tree and adjusted their breath, and then continued to Nanli Medicine Sect a quarter of an hour later...

Traveling all the way until night, the two of them landed directly in a small town, asked for a room, and prepared to rest for a night before continuing their journey the next day. However, the entire air in the town was filled with smoke. It's the smell of something burning.

When the waiter took them to the room, he also ordered: "No matter what you hear in the middle of the night today, the two guests must not open the window and go out to see it."

Cheng Jiuge was puzzled, but he still agreed.

After the waiter left, Cheng Jiuge looked at Zhong Lixiu: "What day is it today? Why can't you look out at night? Are there any monsters that appear at night in this town?"

Zhong Lixiu: "On July 14th, the gate of hell opens wide."

Cheng Jiuge counted the days, "So it's already July 14th?" She suddenly thought of something, "I'll go out and look for the waiter and he'll be back soon."

Almost forgot.

Cheng Jiuge quickly asked the waiter for some paper money. This body, her family and the people in that village were still waiting in line in the underworld to drink Meng Po soup or they had been reincarnated. No matter what, she had to give it to them. Burn some paper money.

"Xiaoer, where can I burn paper money?"

"Just in the yard."

"it is good."

Cheng Jiuge walked to the corner of the yard and started burning paper while muttering, "Go and reincarnate with peace of mind. Your revenge has been avenged. If you are short of money down there, you can give me a dream and I will burn whatever you want."

She was muttering that someone suddenly stood next to her. Cheng Jiuge looked up and asked, "Why did you come out?" It was Zhong Lixiu.

He was watching her burn the paper, a little puzzled.

Cheng Jiuge explained, "Today is July 14th. I almost forgot to burn paper for my family."

Zhong Lixiu was stunned, "Family?"

Cheng Jiuge: "Well, although people who cultivate immortality should stay away from the secular world, I thought that they might be short of money down there, so I gave them more to burn for comfort."

Zhong Lixiu suddenly remembered Cheng Jiuge's life experience and witnessed the death of the entire village except for himself.

Cheng Jiuge suddenly thought, "Speaking of which, you can be considered a son-in-law. You can also burn it and let my parents know about you." She handed him a wad of paper money.

Zhong Lixiu squatted down and put the paper money into the fire.

Cheng Jiuge: "This is your son-in-law. He is a powerful Nascent Soul, has money, is generous, is wise and martial, is extremely handsome, is loved by everyone, and has flowers blooming... In short, he is excellent, don't worry."

Zhong Lixiu: "..."

At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the paper money formed a small whirlwind and flew into the sky.

After the burning was done, they clapped their hands and returned to the room.

Zhong Lixiu sat on a chair with his eyes closed and meditated, while Cheng Jiuge sat on the bed and meditated. Until midnight, the sound of trumpets and gongs and drums came from outside.

The sound was a bit scary, but the waiter said not to open the window and look. Cheng Jiuge continued to close her eyes, but she suddenly opened her eyes because Zhong Lixiu was gone and he was not in the room.

"Zhong Lixiu?" Cheng Jiuge shouted.

no respond.

Cheng Jiuge thought for a moment before opening the door and going out to take a look. The "creak" sound was particularly loud in the silent corridor.

Cheng Jiuge walked to the corridor, but there was no one there. She slowly walked downstairs and turned to the courtyard. She saw that the full moon above her head was extremely bright, casting a long and narrow shadow on her. There was also a burst of sad music outside.

Cheng Jiuge felt a little cold, and after thinking that nothing would happen to Zhongli as he cultivated to the Nascent Soul Stage, she might as well go back to her room.

As soon as he walked back, he saw Zhong Lixiu coming in through the window.

? ? ? "where did you go?"

Zhong Lixiu closed the window: "I noticed something unusual outside, so I went out to take a look."

Cheng Jiuge: "Did you see anything?"

Zhong Lixiu: "None."

Cheng Jiuge: "Then did you see the outside? It's not like the ghost gate is really open outside. Those ghosts are shopping outside, right?"

Zhong Lixiu: "There are people attending the funeral." As for ghosts, of course there are.

Cheng Jiuge: "...Which family has the custom of holding funerals at night? It's really a bit scary."

Zhong Lixiu: "The sword can destroy everything, don't be afraid."

Cheng Jiuge: "You're right." But you have to be afraid when you should be afraid. Several people came back and everything was fine, and she continued to rest.

Early the next morning, the two of them checked out of the hotel and continued to fly toward Nanli Medicine Sect with their swords... After flying for more than two hours, they finally arrived at Ouyin City at the foot of Nanli Medicine Sect Mountain.

Jiyin City is also a big city like Wuxiao City. People come and go on the streets. There are shops on both sides of the streets. You can also see some monks wearing sect clothes.

Cheng Jiuge also saw disciples wearing Nanli Medicine Sect clothes, but they were heading to Nanli Medicine Sect now, so there was no need to recognize them, and Cheng Jiuge didn't know those disciples either.

The two of them arrived at the foot of the Nanli Medicine Sect. Unlike the Wuji Medicine Sect, they took the stairs directly, but took the ladder directly up.

Of course, there were people guarding the door. When they saw Cheng Jiuge and Zhong Lixiu, they were immediately ready to stop them, but the disciple immediately recognized Cheng Jiuge when he saw them. "Senior Sister Cheng, are you back? I will report it to the commander immediately." Door."

The man ran away before Cheng Jiuge could say anything, but there was still one person guarding him.

Cheng Jiuge: "I'm taking my husband back home."

The gatekeeper disciple looked at Zhong Lixiu: "Greetings to Zangguang Zhenjun, Senior Sister Cheng, you and Zangguang Zhenjun will go up first."

"Ah."

The two stepped onto the ladder, changing it twice and finally reached the topmost Hall of Eternal Life.

Not long after Cheng Jiuge and Zhong Lixiu waited, the headmaster, her master Master Ming Ling, and some elders came out.

"Greetings to the leader, master, elders, my disciple Jiu Ge has returned."

Zhong Lixiu also bowed.

The leader immediately asked them to get up, "Just come back. Sit down quickly."

Zhong Lixiu quickly took out the door-returning gift, "This is the door-returning gift that my senior brother asked me to bring over."

The leader looked at the various things and was very satisfied with the Wuji Sword Sect's etiquette, "You are thoughtful."

After greeting each other for a while, the headmaster asked Master Cheng Jiuge, Master Ming Ling, to take the person away.

Returning to the area where Cheng Jiuge originally lived, Senior Brother Xiao Cheng also walked out, "Junior Sister, are you back?"

Cheng Jiuge ran over, "Senior brother, I'm back. Where is senior sister?"

Venerable Ming Ling: "Your senior sister went out to exercise a long time ago and has not come back."

Cheng Jiuge: "When?"

Xiao Cheng: "Not long after you got married."

"Okay, I brought her a gift. Senior brother, help me give it to senior sister." Cheng Jiuge took out their gifts, "Senior brother, I also brought you a gift. And master."

Venerable Ming Ling touched her head and said, "You are considerate. I also want to thank True Lord Zangguang for caring for my disciple." Venerable Min Ling looked at Zhong Lixiu.

On the way back to their side from the Palace of Eternal Life, he watched Zhong Lixiu take good care of her disciple.
