The Demon Road of the Republic of China

Surrounded by mountains and rivers, autumn is misty.

The sound of cocks crowing and dogs barking gradually started in Changqing Town, which had just opened its sleepy eyes. Among the scattered rice paddies and houses, there was a curl of smoke from the kitchen, creating a refreshing and interesting scene in the morning.

A young man dressed in rough clothes appeared on the road outside the town, moving forward with the market crowd.

This man has a dark complexion, gray face, blurred eyebrows, his hands are in his pockets, and he keeps moving, as if he is kneading something interesting, and a smile or two can't help but flicker at the corner of his mouth.

When there were few people, he would occasionally tilt his head and lower his voice, speaking to the nothingness beside him.

"Your stomach is so soft, Young Master Gu, are your abdominal muscles fake?"

"The clothes on your body are still wet. I'll finish it later. I'll wipe your body and change your clothes? But you're so young, you can't wear much clothes..."

There was a pain on the lip, and it was a little red for no reason.

Rong Fei quickly glanced left and right, closed his mouth and stopped teasing Gu Jinghan, his wrist was also gripped by a bone-penetrating coldness, he took it out of his pocket, and grabbed the icy loyalty, One touch and instant.

"The talisman has a time limit. The one I changed should last for an hour, but your craftsmanship is not good, so it only lasts half an hour. If it doesn't work in half an hour, remember to make up another one."

Gu Jinghan floated to one side, his fingers lightly brushed the back of Rong Fei's hand, and he said in a low voice, slightly scattered and ethereal.

Rong Fei raised the corner of his mouth: "I can forget everything, but I must not forget this. Don't worry."

While talking, the two had already entered Changqing Town.

Before, the common people went up the mountain to chase them all of a sudden, the incident happened suddenly, and there was no way to distinguish it, Gu Jinghan and Rong Fei didn't know what happened at all.The first thing after going down the mountain now is to put on a little face and go to the town to check the situation.

But in fact, there is no need to deliberately investigate this situation.

Today is a small gathering in Changqing Town.

The big market is once every seven days, and the small market is once every three days. There are also markets in normal times, but it is not as lively as the small market and the big market.

As soon as they entered the town, Gu Jinghan and Rong Fei heard a loud sound of beating gongs and drums, and many people rushed to follow the sound. Looking in the direction, it was a deserted old theater in the center of the town. Call the common people for a meeting, chatter, and pass on some notices from the county.

But today, a pile of firewood was set up in front of the stage.

"It seems something is wrong..."

Rong Fei frowned and looked around, turned his head and exchanged glances with Gu Jinghan, lowered the brim of his hat, and followed the crowd to the stage, pretending to be watching the excitement, and asked an old lady who was crowded beside her , "Ma'am, what's the matter? Why are there so many people crowded there, no stalls anymore?"

As he spoke, he stretched his neck on tiptoe in a decent manner, and looked forward as hard as he could.

The old lady raised her eyes and looked at Rong Fei: "You're here to go to the market. You won't be able to buy anything today, and everyone is here to see the Heavenly Master exorcising demons."

Rong Fei was stunned: "The Celestial Master eliminates demons? Could it be the Heaven who descended from Evergreen Mountain..."

"Hey!"

The old lady grabbed Rong Fei's arm, interrupted Rong Fei's words urgently, and warned, "Little descendant, if you don't know, don't talk nonsense! Where did the celestial master come from on Changqing Mountain? That's a demon!" "

Rong Fei's eyes darkened, and he asked in doubt: "Why did you become a demon? When I was young, I used to go to the mountain with my mother to offer incense. There were not many people and the incense was not busy... By the way, I saw Changqing Mountain two days ago Wearing Taoist robes..."

"Why not a demon?"

The old lady's voice was sharp, paused, then softened, and sighed, "There used to be real immortals in Changqing Temple, with white beard and white eyebrows, an old immortal, and a very good-looking little immortal... Unfortunately, Afterwards, the old fairy went, and the little fairy died, and the Evergreen Temple fell."

"You said you met two days ago, I saw the old lady, and someone saw those two living in Changqing Temple for two or three days..."

The old woman's voice was slightly hoarse, with a slightly trembling and weird tone, "The one in the Taoist robe looks almost like the little fairy, but the little fairy is dead, and the one who comes out...isn't it a demon, isn't it?" Is it a ghost?"

Rong Fei suppressed the astonishment in his eyes, and glanced at Gu Jinghan beside him.

As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was a bit unsteady: "Dead...?"

"Dead," said the old woman, "I don't know how. That night, my old woman, I still remember that there was such a big black cloud from the sky, lightning, and thunder, and it struck the top of Changqing Mountain... Everyone was terrified. I thought I offended the mountain god, so I went up the mountain to invite the old god, but the old god said that his apprentice died..."

"Oh, such a small child..."

Rong Fei was a little dazed for a moment.

Unexpectedly, just asking casually, there is such a reason.If the old god is from Changqing Mountain, then the little god should be Gu Jinghan.If so, how could Gu Jinghan have died?

"Don't think about it."

A cold hand pressed onto the back of the neck, and gently squeezed it as if soothing. Gu Jinghan's voice was still calm and calm, "I remember that time when the thunder struck. It was an urn. Master borrowed the lightning to enter me. Then I went down the mountain and left Changqing Town. My master was just joking, and the villagers didn’t know what was going on.”

The many distracting thoughts in my mind were soothed and suppressed by this voice.

Rong Fei put his hand into his pocket, touched the small and soft body of Gu Jinghan, nodded his head imperceptibly, knowing that because of the fact that Gu Jinghan's soul left the body in Luanshan, his mind was out of control, and his concern was chaotic. , then tried to calm down, and continued to inquire.

"Then it's impossible to say that there are similarities between the two people. It's unknown if that person is the twin brother of the little fairy. How can I just say..."

The old woman's face sank immediately when she heard the words, as if she had been touched against the scales, she glanced at Rong Fei, and said coldly: "What the celestial master said, is there any mistake? Besides, the men in the town saw the two demon students with their own eyes the night before yesterday. Eating human flesh, using blood to refine formations, is extremely evil...Young man, please be more careful with your words."

After finishing speaking, he no longer cared about Rong Fei, turned around and squeezed to another place.

"It seems that someone is plotting against us."

Rong Fei narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a cold voice, "No enmity or grievance..."

"It can't be without enmity or hatred," Gu Jinghan said suddenly, Rong Fei turned his head, and saw Gu Jinghan floating up, above everyone's heads, looking forward, his pale and transparent face darkened, "It's a acquaintance."

Rong Fei raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Floating back to Rong Fei's side, Gu Jinghan grabbed his wrist and led the person forward, the Yin Qi slowly escaped from his body, everyone around felt the cold from their backs, looked around but didn't know where it was blowing When the wind came, he shrank his neck and hid to the side.

Rong Fei just took the opportunity to squeeze past.

Gu Jinghan drove the road, and after a while, the two reached the front rows of the crowd, with a wide field of vision, and Rong Fei could see the scene clearly when he raised his eyes.

A tall bonfire was set up in front of the stage, but it was not lit.

A pillar was erected in the middle of the fire, and on the pillar was tied a man in crimson silk, thin and emaciated, in a state of embarrassment, with scattered hair, only a handsome face could be vaguely seen, and he was asleep with his eyes closed.

In front of the fire, there is an incense table. A young Taoist priest in a yellow Taoist robe and carrying a gossip and Tai Chi diagram is standing in front of the incense table. The wind blowing from somewhere is gently raised, which has the meaning of fairy style.

"Ning Yun'an?"

Rong Fei was taken aback for a moment, his eyes moved, "... Xuanxu? Why is he here?"

"Ning Yun'an has a problem." Gu Jinghan said.

In fact, there is no need for Gu Jinghan to say, as long as Rong Fei is not blind, he can also see the problem.Because it was not Xuanxu who was dressed in a Taoist outfit in front of him, but Ning Yun'an who they had been looking for in the photo.But Xuanxu was the man in scarlet clothes who unfortunately was about to be roasted on the fire.

The real disciples of Fengyang Temple were regarded as monsters and were about to be executed, while the actor in question became a master of Taoism. This drama is too strange.

"Save Xuanxu, capture Ning Yunan, just ask."

Young Master Rong made a simple and rough plan, and said in a low voice, "Then Ning Yun'an is such an evil sect, even Xuanxu has fallen, will he be able to see you? Otherwise, I will be alone..."

"Even if Xuanxu opened his eyes, he still can't beat me." Gu Jinghan cut off Rong Fei's words, his tone was flat, and he had no intention of saving face for Fengyang Temple.

Rong Fei bent the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "Oh, I don't know what sin Xuanxu has done, every time I have to mess up like this, waiting for someone to save me..."

Gu Jinghan looked at Xuanxu who was tied to the pillar through the gap between the heads, his eyes were dark.

At this moment, Ning Yun'an, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly shook the wide sleeves of his Taoist robe, flung his whisk lightly, turned to the common people who had gathered in a large circle, opened his eyes and said, "Recently, there have been many demons and monsters at the foot of Changqing Mountain, and demons are rampant. Undaunted, a poor man who has experienced the mortal world, he does not want to be contaminated by common things, but he cannot bear to see the common people suffer and the common people suffer..."

The tone is light, without the slightest smoke and fire.

Even Rong Fei has to admire, compared to Gu Jinghan and Xuanxu, Ning Yun'an is like a real Taoist priest.

After a high-sounding big talk, Ning Yun'an finally said: "Catch Changqing, the chief culprit of the trouble, a fox demon, and burn it here to respect the might of God!"

"it is good!"

"The Taoist priest is really kind!"

The surrounding people cheered, and the voice of shouting resounded through the sky: "Burn the fox demon to death! Burn the fox demon to death!"

Xuanxu who was tied to the pillar seemed to be awakened by the sound, opened his eyes, stared in a daze for a while, then suddenly widened his eyes, looked around, and immediately realized his situation, his whole face turned pale, desperately Struggling, "I'm not a fox demon! I'm a Taoist priest! A disciple of Fengyang Temple! Listen to me!"

But no one could hear him.

The sound was like a tide, easily drowning him.

Xuanxu almost wanted to cry but had no tears.

At this time, Ning Yun'an had already picked up a talisman with the mahogany sword, swiped it in the air, and the talisman paper burned, and a cluster of flames lit up.

Ning Yun'an's eyes shot a cold light, and with a flick of the mahogany sword, he threw the flame directly into the fire.

"Monster, die!"

Almost at the same time, a gust of wind blew up from the ground, making it cold and piercing.

A slender and pale hand gently squeezed the cluster of flames and held it in the palm.

"Daozhang, I'm a ghost, why don't you accept me?"
