Chapter 158 Taoist Temple
The Chunjiang Mansion where Yan Ping works is located in the west of Qingyang Province.

The south with a pleasant climate and affluence.

The east with prosperous trade and abundant oil and water.

Adjacent to the northern part of Dazhou Capital, where there is almost no danger.

There are no hairs that have been picked out by others.

The western part of Qingyang Province has many mountains and few rivers. The terrain is complex and full of aura, so it has bred countless mountain goblins and bandits.

Some vicious criminals, old demons who were injured in fighting with others, evil cultivators and ghosts on the most wanted list of demon slaying guards, etc. all like to hide and hide in the western mountains.

Various factors have created the strong martial arts and sturdy folk customs in the west of Qingyang Province.

Ouyang Tingxue and his party drove along the official road, and arrived at the entrance of Luoxia Mountain after three days.

The mountains are continuous, one mountain after another, the terrain is complex, marching is difficult, coupled with the raging monsters and bandits, the imperial court cannot open up official roads here.

When you get here, no matter whether you are a businessman or an ordinary person or a scholar rushing for an exam, you can only enter and exit on foot.

In order to prevent the actions from being noticed by the Luoxia Demon King, the assembled demon-slaying team was broken up into pieces under the command of Baili Qingfeng, a thousand-household demon-slaying guard of Chunjiang Mansion, and a group of 50 people disguised as a caravan was not allowed to enter the Luoxia Mountains.

Yan Ping, Hua Qianqian, and Yan Twelve were assigned to Ouyang Tingxue's command.Along with him was Shen Lang, who smiled three times when he heard about the wedding dress.

The mountain road is rough and difficult to walk, but it is not a problem for everyone.

The caravan of 50 people in disguise is dominated by Ouyang Tingxue, who is a business lady.

Because of his peerless looks, Yan Ping disguised himself as Ouyang Tingxue's younger brother, the young master Xu in the caravan.

Shen Lang, who heard about the wedding dress, smiled three times, and for some reason, the three insisted on pretending to be guards.She guarded Ouyang Tingxue like a bodyguard.

A look of keeping away from others.

Hua Qianqian looked funny, and said via voice transmission: "Sir, these three young heroes are guarding against you, I'm afraid you have thoughts about that Ouyang Baihu."

Yan Ping said: "Don't pay attention to them."

……

There were four corpses lying on the mountain road, two big men wiped the blood on the knife with a cloth, and two others were guarding the front and rear.

"These hairy bandits have practiced their fists and feet for a few days, and they dare to come out to rob the way with their fists and legs. They really don't know how to live or die."

The scar-faced man spat and put the knife back into its sheath.

The young man dressed like a scholar sighed, "You can't say that, Yunchuan Province is suffering from a severe drought, and their accents seem to be from the disaster area. It's a helpless move to eat grass for a bite of food."

"Scholar, do you think we shouldn't kill people?"

The scholar took two steps back in shock, and quickly explained, "No, no, I just sigh that the world is difficult and life is not easy."

"Huh, this world only recognizes swords and soldiers. Whoever has the sharpness of the sword and the strength of the soldiers can live a nourishing life. Since my elder brother is willing to take you away, you should follow obediently. Watch more and talk less. No one will treat you like that." It's dumb."

"Second brother, don't say a few words."

The ordinary-looking, dark-skinned young man said, "Brother Ziyu, my brothers have never read the books of sages and sages, so don't be offended by their vulgar words."

"Brother Jing, you are overthinking. These brothers are all good men with true temperaments. It's too late for me to admire them, so why would I take offense?"

"Brother, someone is here." A tall and thin man walked quickly.

"Draw your sword and be on guard."

Zhang Shidao drew his saber out of its sheath.

Clang clang clang, a steel knife was unsheathed to protect the women and children in the middle.

Wang Ruoyu quickly got into the crowd, and squatted down facing a pregnant woman.

He has long been proficient in life-saving methods after studying abroad all year round. The pretty pregnant woman in front of him is definitely the key protection object of this group of people. It is safest to follow the pregnant woman.

"Brother, it's not bandits, it's a caravan."

Seeing Ouyang Tingxue and his party walking in gradually, Zhang Shidao heaved a sigh of relief, "Put the knife away, don't scare people."

"Tingxue is a group of traveling merchants, 26 people." Lu Hongling sent a voice transmission.

"Well, a group of tough traveling merchants."

In Ouyang Tingxue's perception, the group in front of them was strong and had the strength of second-rate masters on average.

The strongest one should have the strength of a first-class master in the world.

It is a powerful force in the secular world.

The dark-skinned young man bowed and said, "I'm next to Zhang Shidao, and I've seen two girls."

"Yang Tingxue." Ouyang Tingxue returned the salute.

"Boldly ask, where is Miss Yang going?"

"Lanling County."

"Coincidentally, I'm from Lanling County, and now I'm a poor scholar who makes a living in business. The Luoxia Mountains are full of bandits and wild animals are infested. If you don't mind, you can come with us, so we can take care of each other."

Ouyang Tingxue glanced at the corpses on the mountain road, then at the women and children surrounded by many men, and said, "Then thank you, Young Master."

"Let's go, we must arrive at Xiaogou Mountain before dark."

Zhang Shidao kicked the corpse off the cliff, helped the pregnant woman sit on the bamboo sliding pole, and went ahead to open the way.

The two men raised the sliders.

The rest of the men carried the goods, those who carried the goods, and those who carried the children, striding to keep up.

Behind the hall of the Scarface Dahan.

The group behaved calmly and in an orderly manner.

Yan Ping, Ouyang Tingxue and his party followed behind.

The weather in the mountains is fickle, and the rain falls as soon as it is said.

The bean-heavy rain beat against the leaves and made a sound. Everyone quickly found a high ground and held up a big umbrella to hide from the rain.

"Miss Yang, this umbrella is for you." Zhang Shidao took out a spare big umbrella.

"Thank you." Lu Hongling took the big umbrella and opened it.

"Brother, the rain won't stop for a while, and I'm afraid we won't be able to make it to Xiaogou Mountain before dark."

Zhang Shidao glanced at the dark sky, and asked Scarface, "You are familiar with this area, and there is a place to stay nearby."

"There is an old Taoist temple on the top of the peak five miles away, that is..." Scarface hesitated to speak.

"What is it?"

"I heard people say that they are haunted by ghosts and people have died."

"There are so many men here, and the yang fire is strong. Even if there are ghosts, they will not dare to attack if they are rushed by our yang fire. What are you afraid of?"

"Brother Jing, are there really ghosts in this world?" Wang Ruoyu asked in a low voice.

"I've only seen beasts with intelligence, and I haven't seen ghosts and monsters."

"Brother Ziyu, as the saying goes, people are three points afraid of ghosts, and ghosts are seven points afraid of people. As long as you are not timid in your heart, ghosts will be afraid of you instead."

It rained heavily for half an hour.

The sky after the rain was gloomy and gloomy, the air was damp and cold, everyone didn't dare to stay longer, they hurriedly packed their things and hurried on their way, and finally arrived at the dilapidated Taoist temple before dark.

The Taoist temple has been uninhabited all year round, half of the gate has collapsed, and many places are rotten and moldy.

Cobwebs are everywhere, the courtyard is full of weeds, and the statue enshrined after the case was burned as firewood, and now only a discolored wooden palm remains.

"Brother, the Houshan kitchen can still be used after tidying up."

"The kitchen is connected to the dining room. The dining room is quite big. The roof, tiles, and walls are all intact, so you can stay overnight."

Zhang Shidao asked: "Is the firewood we brought enough?"

"It can still be used for one night."

Ouyang Tingxue said: "If there is not enough firewood, we have it here."

"Thank you Miss Yang."

Everyone quickly got busy, lighting a fire, boiling water, and cooking.

The Liubo Mansion in the last chapter should be Chunjiang Mansion, it has been corrected, I have to work overtime tonight, I can’t write 4k anymore, sorry.
