Liao Zhai's Refining God

Chapter 287 Sacrifice
Changlin County is not big, but although this small county is located in the frontier, it does not border the nomads. To the north is the Changling Mountains that stretch for thousands of miles, and the border of the Great Xia Kingdom ends here. The land in the north has never been recorded in books. According to some folk travel notes, it is a wild land.

A few hundred miles to the southeast of Changlin County is the first grand pass of the Great Xia Kingdom, "Tianyuguan". After Tianyuguan, it is the northernmost prefecture of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Because the Changling Mountains are rich in products, and it is the most famous ginseng producing area in the Great Xia Kingdom, there are many ginseng diggers who come to dig ginseng.But in this season, there are not many people, so the county town is extremely calm, and there are almost no people on the streets.

At the gate of the city, two soldiers in thick leather jackets were guarding the gate tremblingly. They just took a routine look at Wang Lin who came in on horseback. When they saw Wang Lin's paperwork, they knew that Wang Lin was a scholar who studied abroad. , Immediately there was a look of admiration in his eyes, and he hurriedly let him go.

"Changlin Academy!" After inquiring along the rugged streets, he finally found this academy.According to the introduction in the letter, Zhang Zhuqian, a good friend of Wang Lin's father, works as a private tutor in this academy.

Wang Lin tied the horse to the horse post at the gate, and walked into the academy on foot. The gate of the academy was open, but no one was guarding it.It is mid-winter now, but the sound of reading can still be heard in the academy.The ten-year cold window is fame and fame, and reading is still the life path that students in this era tirelessly pursue.

"Who are you looking for?" Just as Wang Lin walked in, an old man walked out of the gatehouse of the academy and stopped Wang Lin.

"Excuse me, old man, is Mr. Zhang Zhuqian here?" Wang Lin bowed and saluted.

"Zhang Zhuqian!" The old man seemed to recall it, and then suddenly realized: "You are talking about Mr. Zhang Zhuqian who used to be a teacher in Xiyuan Mansion?"

"Exactly!" Wang Lin said.

"Two years ago, I was a teacher here, but two years ago, Mr. Zhang Zhuqian passed away due to illness, leaving only an orphan girl and a servant. They moved back to Songshan Village, Mr. Zhang Zhuqian's hometown," the old man said. .

"Songshan Village?" Wang Lin pondered for a moment and said, "May I ask you, how far is Songshan Village from here, and in what direction is it in Changlin County?"

"There is a mountain road going north along Changlin County. It is a hundred miles away from Changlin County. It is the northernmost village in Changlin County. It is at the foot of Songshan Mountain. It belongs to a peak of Changling Mountain Range." The old man introduced. .

"Thank you, old man!" Wang Lin bowed to thank her, and when she walked out of the academy, seeing that it was getting late, she found a hotel in the city to stay.

Early the next morning, the heavy snow began to fall again. After leaving the city, the howling wind rolled up thousands of piles of snow like knives, covering the entire land in white.

"Xi Lulu!" The horse neighed, not afraid of the severe cold weather, and rushed towards the distant mountain.

After devouring the flesh and blood of the white wolf, in the past few days, the horse's body has become fatter, its body is shiny, and its strength is incomparable. If it runs freely, its speed is probably extremely astonishing.

After entering Songshan Mountain, the snow was covered and the mountain road was rough and difficult to walk, but this horse spared no effort to move forward on the rugged mountain road without losing speed.

Far away, after passing a hill, I found a small village lying quietly in the valley, looming in the vast wind and snow.And on the back of the village, a majestic high mountain stands, covered with green pines, it should be Songshan.

"Looking at your hard work, this fox is rewarded to you." Wang Lin knew that he was about to arrive, and immediately took out a fox monster from the storage bag.

"Xi Lulu!" The horse was very excited, ran over and bit the fox, and began to devour it.

Inadvertently, Wang Lin discovered that the teeth in the horse's mouth did not look like those of herbivores at all, but the teeth of a liger. I just don't know whether they grew out recently or were like this before.

However, Wang Lin knew that this horse could still eat grass, because along the way, it ate the same feed as a normal horse diet.It just likes to devour the flesh and blood of monsters.

In less than half an hour, the fox was devoured by the horse, leaving only the fur of the fox outside.However, at this time the horse was a little drowsy and seemed to be slouching.

Wang Lin ran the qi-watching technique and saw that the qi and blood in his body were boiling, which seemed to be extremely unstable.Wang Lin felt that this horse was about to break through to a new level.

"You wait for me in this cave. I'll come to you after I'm done!" Wang Lin unfolded her figure, and found a cave next to the road, behind a dense forest and close to the cliff. The cave was not small enough for the horse to hide in. So Wang Lin ordered.

In fact, Wang Lin didn't know if the horse could understand, but just talked to it subconsciously, and then the horse went through the dense forest and came to the cave as Wang Lin said.

Wang Lin took off the saddle and other items from the horse's back and put them aside, and also untied the horse's reins.Otherwise, once it is discovered, it is easy to catch it.Then Wang Lin waved her palms and swirled with Liuyun sword energy, cutting down a pine tree as thick as an armrest, blocking the entrance of the cave, and then left.

"Master Patriarch, fellow neighbors. You can't do this, you can't!" Wang Lin heard a heart-piercing cry as soon as she approached the mountain village.After all, the mountain village is not big, and there are less than a hundred households. Hearing the cry of a woman, her voice seemed hoarse from crying, quite sad.

"Yunniang. Our Songshan Village relies on the protection of the Dragon God to live and work in peace and contentment. Now the Dragon God wants your lady. This is the honor of your lady. If you dare to stop it again, you should deal with it according to the Zhang family's law." A dignified old man said coldly .

"Master patriarch, my master was helpful to the neighbors in Songshan Village when he was alive. Now our lady is an orphan, please do me a favor, and for the sake of the deceased master, pity my lady and let her go. We I am willing to donate all my assets to buy sacrifices such as pigs, cattle and sheep, if this is not enough, let the poor woman replace the young lady." The woman said.

At this time, Wang Lin followed the voice and came to the village. There was a house in the northernmost part of the village.At this time, a group of people gathered at the gate of the house, an old man brought a dozen strong young people, and at the gate, a woman knelt down there with disheveled hair, blocking these people from entering the house.

"Go away!" At this time, following the old man's wink, a young man walked over, kicked the woman out, and rolled directly into the courtyard, leaving a deep trail on the snow.

"Stop!" But a cold voice came from the house at random. The voice was unusually crisp. Although it contained anger, the voice sounded extremely comfortable and had an extremely pure feeling.

And as the voice came out, a woman came out. She was wearing a thick and slightly worn-out padded jacket. She was about 1.7 meters tall. Her jet-black hair was combed extremely delicately, revealing a face as fair as jade. Although it is still a little immature, it is like the most beautiful porcelain in the world, without a single flaw.

Especially those big black eyes, when looking at everyone, there is not only a kind of indifference, but also a trace of warmth, and a sense of determination. This kind of affection is soft together, making this woman look extremely mysterious, moving.
