Abyss Express

Foreword:

Tangli flowers reflect the poplar trees, which is the place where life and death part.

——Bai Juyi

[Part①·Magic Weapon]

When the spirit sister stepped onto the corridor, she looked at the devastated courtyard and caught a glimpse of the wounds on the wooden beams and columns. They were all traces of the battle left by Fang Fang Huan Meng when she subdued the wolf monster.

This ferocious dog is much smarter than the evil wolf. It will wake up immediately when it smells the smell of blood——

——Maybe "sister" has already suffered! There are domineering and arrogant killing sword auras everywhere in this courtyard. If you step on the cracks in the floor, you will feel cold on the soles of your feet and a dull pain in your skin and flesh!

There are experts! He is an immortal who is the incarnation of Xiu's origin and possesses pure spiritual power!

"Noble man."

When she saw Zhang Congfeng walking over with a cheerful face, she was immediately frightened and felt weak, and wanted to find an excuse to slip away.

"My lord, my legs are weak and I feel the cold wind, so I want to take a pee. Can you help me?"

The puppy was about to kneel down at that moment, which was completely different from the wolf sister who was unreasonable and inexplicably confident.

Wu Xiuwen quickly went to help, forcing the monster in human skin to stand up, and whispered: "Young lady is the daughter of the Mu family, why haven't you passed the door yet, but you have to kneel down and worship when you meet your husband's family? How is this? ?”

"Don't say such weird words." Jiang Xueming said solemnly: "Xiuwen, tell the truth. Don't scare her. She is the only one who is lucky and is the last one. If she goes crazy again, this marriage will not be suitable."

When Wu Xiuwen heard the order, the wild child picked up by the eunuch had an exquisite heart with seven orifices. He naturally knew what Zhang Guiren was thinking, so he immediately changed his face and asked the elf sister in a loud voice.

"There are nine corpses in this room, but not a single woman. The Buddhist carving master and the doctor have done some immoral things, and they want to amuse the brothers with these demons in human skins? Are you kidding Zhang Guiren? Do you know who Zhang Guiren is? What is his identity? In the Nine Realms Imperial Court, he is a first-class official who treats the emperor!"

"I kindly invited this immortal figure and sent him to Black Wind Ridge to take care of Empress Zhuzhu, and give you some thin noodles for the Blood Jade Guanyin Bodhisattva! How could I have thought that you would dare to tease Zhang Guiren? Marriage? Bah!"

"Yes, yes, yes." The spirit girl lowered her head and admitted her mistake. After receiving Wu Xiuwen's spit, she became passive.

Wu Xiuwen asked the evildoers to file a complaint first, and only one of the "beautiful daughters" he sent died. Does he still need Zhang Guiren to plead guilty?

He then scolded: "Let me reveal your face! See how many faces you have!"

As soon as Wu Xiuwen raised his hand, the spirit didn't dare to resist and just wanted to beg for mercy.

"Don't! Don't! I was wrong! I was wrong! Xianjia spare my life! Xianjia spare my life!"

Jiang Xueming immediately asked: "Why do you do this? Tell the truth, otherwise you will be dead."

Wu Xiuwen then scolded: "Tell the truth! Otherwise, you will end up like that bitch brother of yours! All your flesh and blood will be eaten away by insects, leaving only your fur as your clothes!"

When the spirit girl heard the news of Brother Wolf's death, she felt resentment in her heart, but it quickly dissipated in fear. She didn't even dare to shed tears, and she couldn't express the slightest bit of hatred, so she could only tell the truth.

"The Buddha Sculpture Master called the Rat Master to summon us two brothers."

"You want us to become beautiful daughters and serve Zhang Guiren. We need to blow our pillows and ask about Zhang Guiren's life experience and the purpose of our visit. The matter of Empress Zhuzhu's pregnancy cannot be neglected. If someone has evil intentions, , to cause her to have a difficult childbirth. The Great Buddha of Lingguang blamed it, our little Black Wind Ridge can’t leave a single living thing.”

Saying this, the spirit took a few steps forward and leaned against the door. When he saw the body of the white wolf under the bronze mirror next to the screen, he squeezed out a few tears and turned into a girl who was aggrieved.

"I have pity on my two sisters. They are just dolls in the hands of the big man. They can be manipulated here and there, but they die accidentally! ~ I have pity on my sister."

"Alas! Alas! Alas!~"

Jiang Xueming did not immediately listen to these words, but looked at Wu Xiuwen to signal.

Talking about Wu Xiuwen's temperament, his ability to observe people's emotions is already very good. It is different to have a godfather who came out of the palace. He can tell what Zhang Guiren wants to ask with just one glance.

Wu Xiuwen immediately asked: "Are you telling the truth?"

Just as Yan Quan was about to nod, he suddenly felt a chill all over his body.

Wu Xiuwen scolded fiercely: "You are a bitch (a derogatory term for a man who pretends to be a woman in ancient times). The brothers have already interrogated your eldest brother before, and you are still here pretending to mourn! Who are you trying to deceive? !?"

The spirit sister immediately changed her words: "I am a male! I am a male! I mean what I said! I mean what I said!"

Jiang Xueming was also curious. Is it true that in such a large village, no woman can be found? Want to call these villagers and monsters to pretend to be beauties? Is it the same as Zhao Jianying said? This woman with delicate skin and tender flesh was sent to the mountains to be steamed and boiled?

So he asked: "Look up, let me ask you, where have all the women in this village gone?"

After Wu Xiuwen's intimidation, Yan Quan no longer dared to make nonsense and told everything truthfully.

"In Black Wind Town, nothing is as important as giving birth. Women who are good at giving birth should be kept hidden and under the supervision of the rat-faced doctor."

The word "care" made Jiang Xueming furious——

——Because during the expedition, there was a similar ghost land and magic city. Blood-giving monsters are sterile. In an environment where people cannibalize people, if the Crazy Butterfly Holy Cult becomes big and can cover the sky with one hand, it will have to find a way. Sustainable human captivity.

The level of medical care in Chabon is still at the level of the secular world two or three hundred years ago. When it comes to pregnancy and childbirth, the chances of pregnant women dying suddenly due to dystocia are frighteningly high. The so-called "good childbirth" is a very scarce resource. Take Huandan as a betrothal gift in exchange for excellent fertility resources.

Xueming had learned before that only after giving birth to children could the townspeople in this place be qualified to inherit the Huandan and gain the longevity of the blood-granting monster. The only son of a single family had the strength to dig wells, collect water, and raise pigs in pens.

But all this is based on the premise of "unified care". As the agent of the Emmanuel Buddha, the Buddha carving master is like raising livestock. Not only can he decide the birth, old age, illness and death of every ordinary person in Black Wind Town, he can also decide how men behave. Using strength, how does a woman match her husband, how does an old man sell his flesh and blood.

The children were threatened by the Black Wind Ridge demon and educated by their parents, and they must continue to listen to the etiquette lessons of the Blood Jade Guanyin.

"Your Excellency." Yan Quan saw that Jiang Xueming's expression was wrong and immediately asked: "Your Excellency, are you angry? Did I say something wrong? I will change it immediately. I will change it immediately."

Jiang Xueming asked: "Can you please explain in detail, what does this care mean?"

"Marriage matters also need to be controlled by rat-faced doctors and priests. How can it be so simple?" The spirit explained: "Wealthier families have a prosperous population in their courtyards and have more good relationships with Bodhisattvas. If they return the elixirs, they will give them away." The Rat Master will naturally take care of the incense, New Year's Day gifts and money, and provide the young men in the family with good wives."

"If you are from a poor family, you are stingy at heart, don't have much wisdom, are unwilling to hand over the Huan Dan, have only one son at your knees, and cannot get much wealth by working hard, then you should be a bitch, and the dragon will give birth to the dragon and the phoenix will give birth to the phoenix."

"Although we are all fellow villagers, there are seniors and juniors in Heifeng Ridge. If no one takes care of the matter of marriage, then the mouse will marry into the Longfeng family, which will mess up the ethics."

"When it comes to getting married, if the rat-faced doctor doesn't nod and the clan priests don't admit it, how can it be the turn of a man and a woman to make a private marriage? That's why all the people sent to you are men - innocent women who have already been married can't come. The yellow-flowered girl in the palace can’t even come.”

This is the "ghost" in the feudal era. It follows the growth rings of trees and runs forward. In modern society, it still lingers around people, invisible and intangible. It makes people feel frightened when talking about it.

"Your Excellency?" Yan Quan didn't dare to continue, because Jiang Xueming's face became increasingly ugly, "Your Excellency, I told the truth, and you have to keep your word."

Jiang Xueming: "I won't kill you, but I still want to trouble you to continue answering."

The awkward dog immediately showed its attentiveness, and its body movements began to twist its waist and hips in a flattering manner.

"Hey! You asked! You asked!"

Jiang Xueming pointed to the body on the bed inside the door.

"How did these men turn into beautiful women? And you? I remember that it takes at least two to three hundred years for monsters to transform into human form."

The big wolf dog of green gold wanted to gain human humanity. VIPs like Wolf Brother Oscar also drank countless panacea and white lady's essence, changed their genes bit by bit, and slowly changed from a military dog ​​to a half-wolf, and finally... It is simply miraculous that these two monsters, the white wolf and the ferocious dog, can turn into vivid humanoids.

"It's the Buddha Sculptor's magic weapon," the dog regretted as soon as it opened its mouth. It might not end well when it returns to Black Wind Ridge, but Wu Xiuwen showed off and intimidated him with a gloomy expression on the side, so its brain turned a little slower.

Previously, Wu Xiuwen came to Black Wind Ridge with a lot of money to seek immortality, and he had seen these six treasures. But what Nian Quan didn't know was that Wu Xiuwen only knew the power of the treasure tree and did not know the magical powers of the other five treasures.

Jiang Xueming: "Huh?"

"Yes, it is a magic weapon." The spirit immediately confessed, breaking the jar and smashing it, thinking only of saving his life: "There are six magic weapons! The whirling peeling bark tree can weave skin and make meat, change people's appearance, and give me, this beast, a human skin. "

Jiang Xueming: "What about the other five?"

"I can't remember this, slave." The spirit scratched his head and untied his bun, turning into a crazy woman with disheveled hair: "I can't remember clearly."

It didn't dare to say "I don't know". If Zhang Guiren could kill its elder brother, he could also kill it - a useless thing is a waste with a short life span.

"Can't remember? Don't remember?" Wu Xiuwen's eyes widened and he asked fiercely, "Do you want me to peel off your human skin! Did a dog's brain become smart?"

"I remembered! I remembered!" The dog begged for mercy again and again. Seeing that the Zhao brothers did not express their opinions, it immediately gave a charming look and threw itself in front of Jianying. It thought that maybe these people were not of the same mind, so it cried out miserably. Please help.

"Don't skin me! Don't skin me!"

[Part②·Innate divine power]

At this time, the Zhao brothers, who had been watching for a long time, couldn't bear it.

Zhao Jianxiong originally had a good impression of this "little girl". Zhao Jianying was the same as his younger brother. The two brothers relied on instinct to recognize people and do things. Naturally, they were not as decisive and ruthless as Wu Xiuwen and Zhang Congfeng.

To put it bluntly, the human skin of this ferocious dog happens to grow on the XP of the two brothers. People can do a lot of stupid things and say a lot of stupid things for XP.

Even if the Holy Monk of the Tang Dynasty met half of Guanyin, no matter how much his disciples said good or bad things, the Holy Monk still had to rescue this beautiful demon from the tree and dig it out from the soil, let alone these two savage villagers?

Jianxiong has opened his mind and knows that these "women" are transformed into monsters, but he still can't pass this test. He told Zhang Congfeng some muddle-headed nice things.

"My benefactor, we killed its brother, asked it to betray its master, and forced it into a pit of fire to suffer. It also wanted to seek immortality and a human skin. It has never hurt us - why is it so miserable? force?"

"Do you want to be an Arhat?" Jiang Xueming turned around and asked calmly, "Always accompany the Blood Jade Guanyin Bodhisattva? Do you want this puppy to accompany you to read scriptures?"

Jianxiong didn't dare to respond. When he looked at his benefactor, he saw a sharp knife in his eyes. The blade was white and flawless. There were howling ghosts and wolves. For a while, he couldn't tell who was the monster and who was the ghost. . Even if he couldn't feel the true spiritual power, just this glance made his two limbs tremble, and he didn't dare to say anything.

"If you don't bring me a knife, I'll shave your face and shave you." Jiang Xueming scolded people in a very unpleasant way: "You worthless turtle bastard, your eighteen generations of ancestors have lived in vain. You all lived on a dog. Were you reborn in the wrong fetus? You should have been reborn in the animal realm? Otherwise, why would you have talked about feelings with this dog? If your father hears what you say now, he will have to pay even if he dies. You’re so angry!”

"I'm saving your life, and you want to speak for this dog? It also wants to put on my bed and cover me, so as to bring some good news to its master who drinks human blood and eats human flesh!"

"Why don't you just join the Buddhist carving master? He knows the Hunyuan Creation Technique! He will guarantee you to become an immortal and a Buddha! I don't have that ability!~" Jiang Xueming shrugged and spread his hands: "I haven't become an immortal yet, how can I teach you to become an immortal? "

Jianxiong only felt ashamed. When he lost his mind, he was shocked to realize how confused he was. Just taking one more look at the pitiful appearance of this painted-skinned beauty, I couldn't help but feel pity in my heart.

This is not to blame Jianxiong. In the eyes of the immortal Luo Ping'an, modern society is the same and has never changed - no matter what unscrupulous bad things the clay idol has done, as long as he has a good skin, there will be believers who will kneel down and worship him. of.

Jianying, who was watching from the sidelines, learned well and did not ask for this scolding. But this slow and steady elder brother wanted to talk to Zhang Congfeng about Xia Bang's morality.

"My dear friend, don't blame Jianxiong. I followed Wu Xiuwen all the way in. The weather in Heifeng Town is smooth, just like its former name of Hefeng Town. If it weren't for the protection of the Blood Jade Guanyin Bodhisattva, there would be no power to return the elixir. Where can such good livestock and crops come from? Even the poorest families in villages and towns can afford cotton clothes and have well water in their backyards."

"You don't know something. Jianxiong and I came from Taiguang County. There was a plague in the village, and every family was tortured by the disease. They were weak during the harvest in the autumn, and suffered from hunger and disease in the winter. They couldn't afford the medical expenses and money. To gain family wealth, one has to exchange children for food - compared with this, I hope there is a Guanyin Bodhisattva in Zhaojiazhuang. At least one of the Huanan Pills is in the body. Why should my whole family be afraid of illness? There is no need to take Jianxiong away from home. My parents The bodies of my two parents were exposed in the wilderness and were bitten by wolves and insects. My two brothers have to fight for their lives with wild bears to fight for wealth."

Speaking of this matter, Jiang Xueming did not wait for an answer.

Wu Xiuwen sneered: "How dare you conclude that the plague in Zhaojiazhuang, Taiguang County, is a natural disaster and not a demonic disaster?"

Zhao Jianying was asked, and he also thought about it——

——Last year during the Waking of Insects, all the snakes, insects, and beasts in the mountains and forests were awakened. A wild fox Zen came to the county town to give lectures, and had a bad quarrel with the county magistrate. Then during the Grain Rain season, the plague broke out, and the county magistrate went to seek immortality again. It's too late for the medicine.

"Besides," Wu Xiuwen stood next to Zhang Guiren, and his words were somewhat arrogant: "Even if it is a natural disaster, does God have no fault at all?! Your whole family should die in a natural disaster of plague? Boss Zhao, don't blame me God? Don’t you blame the plague? Now you want to blame Mr. Zhang for being cruel? Do you want to kill Mr. Zhang with the holy sword of morality? Are you saying that he is cruel and unethical and kills people indiscriminately? "

In fact, Jiang Xueming was in a cold sweat. If he had to go to Black Wind Ridge alone, this journey would be much more dangerous. The two porters, Jianying and Jianxiong, were able to save his luggage, leaving him free to concentrate on dealing with the monsters. It is too difficult to find food and shelter in this wild place - it is completely different from the previous journeys to eliminate the Crazy Butterfly Holy Cult.

In the past, Xueming could travel alone while sleeping in the open air. With communication support, he could return to the civilized world along the railway in three or four days to repair supplies, eat well, sleep well, and drink the panacea to become a good man again.

But what about now? When you go out to climb mountains and ask for directions to deal with monsters and monsters, you don’t have reliable intelligence support, no preliminary work, no local mass base, and no trustworthy partners. When you go to someone else’s home field to start a film, you have to consider where your next meal will be. It is nothing to die in battle, but to be trapped in the mountains with no way out, to become weak from hunger, to run out of all the panacea, to be bitten to death by poisonous snakes and eaten by wild beasts, this is absurd.

The Zhao brothers were bewitched and began to discuss disbanding as soon as they disagreed. Fortunately, Wu Xiuwen, a clever little guy, became the team's leader. He said this, which actually broke the sword hero's inner demons.

"What a fucking powerful demon!" Zhao Jianying cursed secretly: "God damn it! I almost turned into an unkind and unjust defender! I was saved by my benefactor, but I wanted to be ridiculed and cursed by my enemy. Wake up my wooden head!"

The spirit dog kneeling beside it saw that it had no choice but to do anything, and the Zhao brothers did not speak for it, so it did not dare to take the initiative to speak - this monster is very powerful when it wins people's hearts, and it can't do anything weird without anyone to support it.

"Think carefully, what are the other five magic weapons capable of? If you can't explain why, I'll skin you!" Jianxiong stood on Wu Xiuwen's side, completely forgetting his previous hatred, but he still mentioned it A few strange words: "Let the good son of the eunuch wear the clothes. He has a crooked mouth and a crooked nose. Grandpa will be angry when he sees it! Why don't I skin you! Let this evil be fulfilled! Let me ask you! Do you remember it?"

Wu Xiuwen responded in a low voice: "You are just a movie star, what kind of quirks do you have! It's disgusting."

Jiang Xueming looked on and felt dumbfounded. He never expected that these two little brothers could stand together.

Yan Quan first received the scolding and trembled, then raised his head to look at Jian Xiong.

"Remember! Remember! But I still have questions. If my life can be spared, the Buddhist carving master must be held accountable and have an explanation."

It pointed at the corpse in the door and asked angrily.

"These guys, and my eldest brother, were all killed by Zhang Guiren?"

Jianxiong responded loudly: "It's your grandfather and me!"

Yan Quan didn't believe it: "Seriously?"

Jianxiong was not afraid of the Buddha carving master coming to trouble him, so he immediately said: "That's me!"

Jiang Xueming pinched Jianxiong's arm: "He is born with supernatural powers."

Jianxiong learned what he said——

"——I am born with divine power!"
