One thought of Acacia, one thought of perseverance

Chapter 38

He Mu was very angry. Some bastard knew that she could not read well, so he wrote dirty things to humiliate her!At first she suspected that the great white shark next door did it, but later denied it—the great white shark was more illiterate than she was and couldn't write about it.

Reading those long and eloquent articles made her brain ache, she just glanced at it and then threw it away, not knowing where it went.So much so that when Chunyu came back, she wanted to find out the other party for revenge, but she couldn't find any physical evidence.

As for Qingxu, Rong Chenzi was noncommittal to Zhuang Shaoqin's plan to lure He Mu to help: "She has nothing to do with me, so you don't have to come and tell me what you want." When he said this, his expression was indifferent, It's like mentioning a passer-by who has no memory at all.After saying that, he held his chest and coughed again, "Why didn't Xiaoye come?"

Zhuang Shaoqin felt a little dizzy, but he still comforted him while passing herbal tea: "Junior Sister is guarding the Liu Mansion, the snake has disappeared now, and I don't know if it will come back again."

Rong Chenzi nodded slightly, and was about to speak, when a servant from the Liu Mansion broke in suddenly, with an anxious expression on his face: "National Teacher, a female corpse was found in the back garden of the Liu Mansion, but it was already deformed... Before Zhuang Shaoqin could stop him, he had already said the rest, "Elder Ge was worried that it was Zhenren Ye, so he ordered the young man to report to you as soon as possible."

Before Zhuang Shaoqin could speak, Rong Chenzi's expression changed greatly: "Xiaoye didn't find it? You!" He held his chest, his chest heaved violently, and the wound wrapped in gauze was bleeding again, "Qingxuan, replace me Change clothes!"

Zhuang Shaoqin knew his nature, even though he knew it would be futile, he still persuaded him kindly: "Senior brother, your injury is still unhealed, even if you go..."

Rong Chenzi was furious, and with his head disheveled, he reprimanded: "What's the matter? Master entrusted you and Xiaoye to me before he died. If something happens to Xiaoye now, how will I see Master in the future!"

He tried his best to get up, and hurriedly changed his clothes: "It's all my fault. I knew Liu Qinfang was different, but I still put her in danger!" He was annoyed and blamed himself, but also worried.Seeing that he couldn't stop Zhuang Shaoqin, he had no choice but to use his sword and rush to Liu's mansion together with him to identify the corpse.

There is a natural lake with a diameter of more than ten feet in the back garden of the Liu Mansion, and several white cranes walk leisurely in it.The weather is getting colder at the end of November, and the water surface is not covered by plants, and it is very empty.

The corpse was parked by the lake, Zhuang Shaoqin didn't speak, and Liu Ge didn't dare to deal with it. Fortunately, the smell was not too strong in early winter.Rong Chenzi was still wearing a white Taoist robe, and because of his serious injury, he was afraid of the cold, so he wore a bamboo green cloak over it.He almost stepped in front of the corpse, his right hand was shaking when he lifted the white cloth.

The corpse under the white cloth was even more difficult to identify than he had imagined, because it had been soaked for too long, the entire facial features had been swollen and deformed, the skin was as white as a silkworm, and the eyeballs seemed to be eaten by fish, leaving only two a black hole.There were no other wounds on the entire body, except that a hole the size of a baby's fist had been knocked open in the back of the head, and the brain was missing.

Rong Chenzi touched the corpse from the right shoulder to the hand, and after a long time he let out a long breath: "It's not Xiaoye."

Zhuang Shaoqin also breathed a sigh of relief: "If that snake is not Liu Qinfang, then shall we send someone to search Liu's mansion to find out where the real Miss Liu is?" He stared at the female corpse in the lake for a while. , speculate carefully, "Or could it be that this corpse is Miss Liu's family?"

Elder Liu Ge couldn't bear to see the death of this corpse, he was exhausted from the accidents one after another: "National teacher, this old woman's corpse has been recognized by the scumbag, she doesn't look like a little girl."

Rong Chenzi pondered for a long time, the early winter wind blowing towards his face with moisture, stirring his hair and clothes, and the dead grass and branches made his haggard look even more apparent.Zhuang Shaoqin really couldn't bear to bother him, but since the matter was related to Ye Tian, ​​he could only put aside his concerns for the time being: "Senior brother, I have seen the three-eyed snake face to face, and the snake's skin is almost invulnerable, and it can also suck souls. If it is broken, I'm afraid it will become even more rampant..."

Before the words were out of his mouth, Elder Liu Ge had already answered: "Master Rong Zun and Master Zhuang Guo, let me tell you two, since this evildoer escaped last time, six or seven people in Lingxia Town have died without any illness in just two days. The state official I have already reported it, I am afraid it will alarm the Holy Majesty. It is estimated that the documents from the imperial court to the national teacher will arrive here in two days."

Rong Chenzi clenched his five fingers into fists, covered his mouth with his sleeve and coughed for a long time: "Do you think the Sea Emperor can really deal with this evil beast?"

He looked at Zhuang Shaoqin, and Zhuang Shaoqin frowned: "I have never seen the ability of that clam spirit, but this person's strength is unquestionable. If she helps, we can get rid of this thing as soon as possible and reduce casualties." The gloomy look in his eyes reappeared, "And she dared to take the flesh and blood of the senior brother, and almost killed the senior brother. When this matter is settled, this account must be settled."

Rong Chenzi's expression was as serious as water: "The relationship between me and her is settled, so there is no need to mention this matter in the future. If she is really helpful to this matter, I will go to the Sea Clan."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Zhuang Shaoqin, even Qingxuan and Qingsu objected: "Master, that mussel spirit coveted Master's flesh and blood and has already resorted to unscrupulous means. Master, you go..."

Rong Chenzi waved his hand to stop them: "She is extremely timid and cautious, and I have to go to this matter personally."

Zhuang Shaoqin was quite calm: "Well, I will go with my senior brother. If the situation changes, there will be someone to take care of me."

Rong Chenzi shook his head: "I'm not going to fight the sea clan. The three-eyed snake will appear at any time, so you should stay here. Since it is a snake, first find some ways to drive the snake away, and try to sprinkle some realgar powder and sparrow dung. "

Immortal Xingzhi heard that Rong Chenzi was coming, so he also came to greet him at this time. Jiuding Palace and Qingxu Temple have always been in harmony with each other, but they have been competing secretly, especially Yuyang Immortal who always sees Rong Chenzi unhappy.It's just that now that the enemy is at hand, everyone knows to take care of the overall situation, so Master Yuyang also greeted Rong Chenzi.

Ye Tian's life and death were unknown, Rong Chenzi didn't dare to delay, and took Qingxuan and Qingsu straight to Lingxia sea area.

At that time Chunyu Lin was patrolling Haiphong, and the mussels were full and lying on the sea surface basking in the sun.The winter sun made her whole body warm. She was a little sleepy, so she turned over and yawned.

Just as I was about to go back to the Sea Palace to sleep, suddenly someone stepped on the water from the sky, and the voice was clear and clear: "His Majesty, it's been a long time, are you okay?"

As soon as He Mu turned his head, he saw Zhuang Shaoqin, still wearing a blue Taoist robe, with a sword slanted on his back, and he carried the extraordinary bearing of a national teacher in his movements.The clam was a little strange: "Why are you here?"

Zhuang Shaoqin approached slowly, looking fascinated by sex: "Since the last time I saw him at the seaside, Xiaodao has never forgotten His Majesty's fairy appearance. Now that I have time, I will naturally come to visit His Majesty."

He Mu took a few steps back vigilantly, a circle of water rippled around her, separating her and Zhuang Shaoqin.She suddenly scolded loudly: "Stinky three-eyed snake, stop pretending, I saw your snake tail!!"

The expression of Zhuang Shaoqin in front of him suddenly became very strange. "He" looked himself up and down, from head to toe, and turned his head 360 degrees to look at his back. Stretch it out!"

The mussel was covered in cold sweat, turned around and dived into the bottom of the sea without saying a word.

When Rong Chenzi, master and apprentice arrived in front of Haihuang Palace, He Mu was grabbing Chun Yulin and talking about the three-eyed snake in shock.The two came from a distance, and the mussels were still chattering, but Chunyu Lin looked indifferent: "It's okay, if you can kill one, you can kill the second, not to mention we are in the water now. How can we be afraid of it?"

The clam was already timid, but it was still sweating coldly: "It still wants to lie to me! I'm surprised, why did it come to me..." Before she finished speaking, she looked up and saw Rong Chenzi.

In the blue sea water, his long clothes fluttered and his sleeves fluttered like a fairy.It's just that I haven't seen him for a few days, and I see that I have lost a lot of weight, and even my usually strong body is showing a little thinness.

Seeing him for the first time, He Mu still felt a little guilty, she rubbed against Chun Yulin, Chun Yulin had kept a three-point distance from her before, but when he saw Rong Chenzi, he subconsciously hugged her slender waist .

With four eyes facing each other, Rong Chenzi cleared his cough, bowed with one hand, and said with complete courtesy: "His Majesty, are you here all right?"

His expression and eyes seemed to be just strangers, He Peng hid behind Chunyu Lin, and it took a long time to poke his head out: "You... are here for revenge?"

Rong Chenzi looked alienated: "There is no enmity or enmity between the poor Taoist and Your Majesty. I came here today to make a deal with Your Majesty." Although he was talking to He Mu, what he was looking at was Chunyu Lin - the Sea Clan It was Chunyu Lin who was in charge, and he had inquired before he came.

Chun Yulin protected He Mum behind him, and looked at Rong Chenzi, his master and his disciples vigilantly: "Since it's a deal, it's shameful to stand outside, please go inside and discuss it in detail."

There are many restrictions in Haihuang Palace, if three people enter, it will be difficult to survive.Both Qing Xuan and Qing Su hesitated, Rong Chenzi calmly said, "Please."

River mussels are timid, and the Haihuang Palace is mainly decorated with crystals, which can be seen through at a glance, so she will not panic.Chunyu Lin ordered someone to hand over the tea, and Rong Chenzi explained the purpose of his visit, but he did not hesitate: "Zhiguan, please sit down for a while, I will discuss with your majesty, and then I will come."

Naturally, Rong Chenzi had no objection, Chunyu Lin led He Mug out of his seat and went into another room.Qingxuan and Qingsu stood on both sides of Rong Chenzi, and also secretly looked at his expression.His expression was indifferent, as if he really didn't know that river mussel.

Chunyu Lin pulled He Mu to avoid Rong Chenzi's eyes and ears, He Mu was still thinking about the fairy meat, but then remembered that Rong Chenzi's essence is also very sweet... She was dreaming, Chun Yulin held her shoulders, and She discussed: "Now that this Taoist priest comes here seriously injured, if you really covet the fairy meat, you might as well detain him directly."

The clam looked up: "What do you mean?"

Chunyu taught her to do bad things: "We can raise him up, anyway, he is seriously injured, and his two disciples are vulnerable. You can eat a little every day, and you don't need to bother."

He Mu drooled and thought about it for a long time, and finally resisted the temptation: "No, he came this time because of the three-eyed snake. It was an act of justice, and he had no evil intentions. Opponents, when Heaven cleans up good and evil, the sins will be very serious, and you may be punished by heaven."

Chunyu Lin doubted: "You have been talking about the so-called way of heaven, does the way of heaven really exist?"

He Peng nodded seriously: "Don't you always doubt me, I'll take you to see it when your cultivation level is higher." She circled Chun Yulin with a charming posture, "So don't be angry with me and him anymore. It’s about sleeping. I thought that if we killed him at that time, it would be because of his lust after all. It wouldn’t be serious even if the Dao of Heaven was liquidated. Besides, Rong Chenzi was highly respected in Daozong. If we really killed him After eating, there must be another confrontation between the Sea Clan and the Taoist Sect. Alas, it’s no wonder that the Dragon King didn’t strangle me. Besides..." She approached Chun Yulin with a sly look, "That three-eyed snake seems to be able to swim...we still The United Taoist sect should kill it, it swims around in the water, I'm afraid."

Chun Yulin was very helpless, he had never been able to understand He Mu's thinking: "But how do you know that this is not a trap set by Taoist sect, once we get out of the water, it will be of great benefit to them."

He Mu shook his head: "Rong Chenzi came alone to prove that this is not a trap."

She bounced back to the palace, Rong Chenzi got up again to greet her, polite but distant.He Mu was not used to it, she sat on the crystal table with an innocent look: "Old Taoist priest, I promise you. How much meat will you give me to get rid of this three-eyed snake?"

Rong Chenzi pondered for a moment: "Two liang."

The clam narrowed its eyes, leaned over and whispered: "Three taels."

"..." The corner of Rong Chenzi's mouth twitched, and finally said, "Okay."

The mussel still has something to say: "Old Taoist priest, you must bleed when you cut the flesh, and the blood will be in vain, why don't you let me lick it together, I promise you will only lick it and not bite it, how about it?"

"Your Majesty really knows how to do business." Qing Xuan's complexion was distorted, Qing Su was angrily, but Rong Chenzi's expression remained unchanged, "Yes."

He Mu clapped his hands happily: "Chun Yulin, pack up your things, we're going to catch snakes!" She suddenly thought of something, went to the palace room and searched for a long time, and finally took a small bottle of plaster and held it in front of Rong Chenzi: "That's it!" It’s Shengji Xugu Ointment, I was injured once before, and there was no medicine, so I made this myself. The effect is very good, the old Taoist will give it to you.”

Qingxuan didn't dare to accept it, secretly thinking that you deserved it yourself?I'm afraid it's raw muscle bone cake, right?

Qing Su doesn't appreciate it either——Master treats you so well, you can have such a vicious heart, so why are you pretending to be a good person at this time?
Rong Chenzi bowed slightly to pay tribute: "Your Majesty has good intentions and a poor heart, but you will not be rewarded for no merit. Your Majesty will use it for your own use."

He Mu was a little disappointed, Chun Yulin took her into his arms, for some reason, in front of Rong Chenzi, he always got intimate with He Mu intentionally or unintentionally: "This thing is too precious, how can Your Majesty give it away at will?" He Rubbing He Mu's long, black and beautiful hair, he comforted him softly, "Besides, Rong Zhiguan is highly respected in Daozong, and the younger brother is a national teacher at the court, so there is no shortage of wound medicine. Let's go."
