Master of the World [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 244 1 The Spring River Flows Eastward 26

It is said that in a duel between masters, anything can be a factor in the outcome, it may be a weapon, or it may be just a negligible wind.

At this moment, the wind blows the smell of running water, and a trace of sweetness enters the spleen and lungs with the breath.

The sword moved a little slower, Lin Xun pricked up his ears and said, "There is a sound."

It is not the chirping of animals at night in nature, nor does it belong to the gurgling water, it is similar to the whimpering of a woman, and it is even more flustering to hear in the middle of the night.

Lin Xun's deep pupils dilated slightly, as if a little worried: "There are ghosts in the deep mountains and old forests"

Qian Jiangyue pierced his pretentiousness without mercy, "I'm afraid it's your kindred."

With the long sword in its sheath, Lin Xun pointed to a certain direction behind him, and heard the sound source and walked over first.

Under the ancient tree, a woman with long fluttering hair had a sad face and a confused expression, hesitating whether to kick over the piled stones under her feet. At this moment, she saw Lin Xun who suddenly appeared, and she was shocked. With a sound, the unstable stone platform suddenly fell, and the woman's slender neck was stuck on the rope, and her body hanging in the air struggled violently, with a very painful expression on her face.

Lin Xun used the toe of his shoe to pick up the gravel on the ground and cut the rope, but he didn't reach out to catch the falling woman.

The fall fell hard, the woman supported her waist with her hands, and before she had time to check if she was injured, her eyes were frightened: "You, who are you?"

Lin Xun didn't answer, but waved behind him: "Someone hanged himself near your house."

The woman was slightly relieved when she saw Qian Jiangyue, at least she wasn't a weird person wearing a mask, and the other party had a water-like calm demeanor, which made her feel a little more at ease.

Seeing that she was wearing a woman's hair bun, Lin Xun said: "If you have a family, you want to die. Could it be that you met a heartbroken man?"

His words instantly aroused the woman's sadness, and two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks, perhaps because she had been suppressed for too long, and she complained to two strangers: "He said he wanted to practice Taoism, and that I was a mortal body, and I wanted to end it." Red dust."

Lin Xun: "Is the 'he' you are talking about evil-looking, unsmiling, and draws his sword at each other when he disagrees with him?"

While saying nothing, he glanced at Qian Jiangyue and said in a low voice, "For example, him."

As the words fell, I wondered if the mountain wind was too cold, and the dark wind blowing from behind, like the hellish wind, kept slipping into the collar of my shirt.

The woman shook her head, because the wind wrapped her arms around her, she was still shivering from the cold, she looked so pitiful, Lin Xun lit a spell to warm her up, but the woman suddenly said angrily: "You are a Taoist! You are also a Taoist!"

Lin Xun was startled, thinking that this was a great injustice.

The woman is sure that he is a Taoist priest, and she doesn't want to get close to him.

Lin Xun: "Just ask two questions, and let you go after answering."

The woman hesitated and nodded.

"Why did you hang yourself near Luodeng Temple?"

The woman's tone was angry: "I just want you Taoists to see how the unfeeling and unrequited love you speak of is so harmful!"

"There are so many waves around, how did you walk up the mountain?"

The woman looked like she didn't know what he was talking about, but Qian Jiangyue glanced down at Lin Xundao: "Who destroyed the formation, you know in your heart."

Lin Xun thought of the big commotion he had made when he came, and smiled guiltyly. After he got the answer, he didn't bother, and winked at Qian Jiangyue, meaning that they could leave.

Everyone has their own life trajectory, and he has no idea of ​​persuasion, not to mention that this woman has not fully preserved her will to die, so it would be difficult to summon up the courage to let her hang herself now.

Seeing that they were heading down the mountain, the woman moved her lips twice, and finally couldn't help but said: "You two are going down the mountain?"

Lin Xun didn't turn his head, and could vaguely feel him nodding slightly from his back.

"The place has been occupied by the devil, you will die if you go there."

Lin Xun stopped and was a little interested. The biggest enemies of human beings are night ghosts and humans themselves. What does the name devil represent?

Finally turning around again, the voice was very calm: "Madam, don't worry, there are not many Taoist priests who are better than me in this world."

Beside Qian Jiangyue sneered when she heard this sentence.

The woman heard another meaning, thinking that Lin Xun meant that his strength was one of the best among Taoist priests.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, the woman clenched her jaded hands tightly and said, "If, if you see a man named Du Sheng, help me, help me ask him... Is my concubine's deep affection not as good as that so-called cold man?" the avenue?"

Lin Xun said indifferently: "It depends on whether there is that fate."

The woman's eyes wandered back and forth between him and Qian Jiangyue, and she couldn't help but said: "For you Taoists, can you give up everything for the sake of the Dao?"

Lin Xun stared at her for a while, then suddenly said: "If I treat someone sincerely, he will be my Taoist and immortal."

The woman's delicate body trembled, and after a long time, she murmured and repeated "I understand, I understand" many times. After reading these three words, she staggered towards the depths of the mountain forest, not knowing where she was going.

Lin Xun was about to continue on his own way, when he raised his eyes and saw Qian Jiangyue looking at him, frowning: "Why are you looking at me with idiot-like eyes?"

Qian Jiangyue looked at him, but she didn't seem to be looking at him, her gaze penetrated Lin Xun's body and she saw something: "The King of Thousand Ghosts can discuss love with human beings."

Lin Xun thought about his background and said, "Do you think I'm lying?"

Qian Jiangyue looked at him coldly: "Isn't it?"

"I'm different from your father," Lin Xun said, "He can barely sit in the position of leader of Kasyapa's lineage until he dies."

He lowered his voice, and his voice was extremely cold: "I promise, it's worth ten thousand gold."

After finishing speaking, she didn't care what Qian Jiangyue's expression was. She said that she was going to find a wild horse in the mountains for transportation. The other party didn't take off her clothes. Swimming was nothing compared to it. Lin Xun didn't have the taste of becoming a drowning duck for no reason.

Black hair and white robe, this back is frozen into eternity under the bright moon.

Qian Jiangyue looked at his back, her eyes gradually darkened, she looked up at the bright moon, and her mother's face appeared in her mind again.He didn't have a deep impression of his biological mother. She died of depression when he was very young. He only remembered that she was a woman with deep love, who would always look at his eyebrows and say... You look really good like your father.

That man didn't make any promises when he loved her the most. He never showed mercy to night ghosts as an adult. He didn't think that race had any feelings.

But now the King of Thousand Ghosts, who is known for his cruelty, reveals that it is his duty to fall in love with someone, and he vows to go all out, which is really... a big joke in the world.

When the first morning star appeared in the sky, Lin Xun led two horses and came slowly from a distance. His clothes were a little wrinkled compared to when he left, and there were two bunches of dull hair on his head. The two horses in the house have always been unruly, their nostrils almost pointing to the sky, and they grunted twice from time to time.

The wild horses in the mountains have strong personalities, and most of them are very irritable. Especially in the mountains near Luodengguan, there are many ferocious beasts. The weak ones and those with weak legs are eliminated under the law of survival not long after birth. Those who survive are very fierce. A wild horse is as powerful as a tiger.

Lin Xun threw him a rein made of leaves of grass with excellent toughness. The moment Qian Jiangyue took it, the black horse immediately raised its front hooves to give him a kick. Qian Jiangyue moved so fast that only an afterimage remained. He was not kicked, but also took advantage of the opportunity to ride on the horse.

On the horseback, Lin Xunfa's raised two pinches of fur were even more obvious. Qian Jiangyue resisted the urge to press down, but she couldn't hold back the slightly raised corners of her mouth. It seemed that a certain famous ghost clan had just Got into a fight with two horses, and seemed to suffer a little.

Lin Xun's pupils were dark: "Do you know where the art of language is?"

Qian Jiangyue pretended to be listening attentively.

Lin Xundao: "See through but don't reveal."

Low laughter came, more mellow than fine wine.

Bojun's smile is a good thing, Lin Xun rubbed his eyebrows, but let's let go of this kind of coquettish past that has almost never fought with a wild horse.

"Going down the mountain now?"

Qian Jiangyue put away her smile, nodded, and returned to her cold face.

"Wait a minute," Lin Xun said, "I'm going to change my appearance, wearing a mask is too eye-catching."

Qian Jiangyue helped him lead the horse. Unexpectedly, the horse was very obedient in front of him. Lin Xun shook his head, walked to the river and turned his back to him, and when he returned after a while——a picture of a country and a city. The top-quality monster face appeared in front of Qian Jiangyue so unexpectedly.

I also know that it is a human skin mask, not the real face of the king of ghosts, Qian Jiangyue: "Is this what you call low-key?"

He was suddenly curious about where such a mask came from. Generally, people who need to wear a human skin mask will choose a face as popular as possible, so as not to attract attention, but the one worn by the King of Ghosts, from the eyebrows to the corners of the mouth, every part They are all full of swagger.

Lin Xun said seriously: "I am the majestic king of ghosts, I am destined to be extraordinary wherever I go. You think that with an ordinary face, others can ignore my temperament... It will only arouse suspicion."

It's like explaining a truth, with reasons and evidence.

Qian Jiangyue had no intention of arguing with him, so she rode her horse and galloped down the mountain. Lin Xun got on her horse afterward, also very fast.

Although I missed the swimming, the horse racing was not bad.

……

Small towns usually give people the feeling of tranquility and comfort. Compared with cities, its rhythm is inevitably slower, but the human touch is always much stronger.

Lin Xun reined in his horse and stopped at the entrance of the town, "I have a feeling that the crow has returned to its nest."

The gloomy atmosphere almost completely enveloped the town, not so much for people to live in, but more like a residence for ghosts.

Qian Jiangyue thought it was fresh to hear him compare himself to a crow, "Go in and have a look."

As foreign visitors, as soon as they entered the town, many eyes lingered on them. On the street, men, women, old and young, some were doing business, some were shopping, and they all looked at the peace, but they were all covered with veils, revealing a bit of talk. Unbelievably weird.

There is a tall portrait standing on the main road of the town. It is very new, and it should have been built not long ago.

Lin Xun looked a little familiar, and after taking a few more glances, he said, "This man gathered the people outside the town last time to set up a fire formation."

Qian Jiangyue didn't even look at it and said: "The cycle of karma, you can't live long."

Lin Xun walked into a shop and pretended to choose folding fans. When paying the bill, he casually said, "Boss, I'm a foreigner. May I ask why there is a portrait standing in the middle of the road?"

The owner of the shop also masked his face, but said in a grateful tone: "The Taoist priest with a compassionate heart, he died young in order to help us collide with ghosts and gods. Of course, he has to erect a statue for people to worship."

Lin Xun leaned back, and whispered to Qian Jiangyue: "You are right, it seems that the retribution sometimes comes a little too fast."

"What did you just say?"

Lin Xun coughed softly, "I said that such a good man died, it's God's blessing..."

Just as he was about to say the words 'good life and virtue', he realized that something was wrong, and changed his tone of regret: "Heaven is jealous of talents."

"Who said it wasn't?" Seeing that he spent a lot of money, the shop owner felt good about him and gave him two handkerchiefs for free.

Lin Xun raised his head and asked, "What is it for?"

"After the death of the Taoist priest, many people in the town were infected with strange diseases, especially young people. First, their bodies became as stiff as stones, and some even sucked blood and bit people. You should wear them quickly, so as not to get infected."

Lin Xun: "Have you seen the doctor?"

"I've tried it, but it doesn't work," the shop owner kept shaking his head: "Fortunately, there is Du Shanren, a disciple of the Taoist priest, who distributes free pills in Sixiang Village every day, and he can strengthen his body after eating it." , to prevent being entangled in strange diseases."

"My surname is Du, a Taoist." Lin Xun and Qian Jiangyue looked at each other and said, "Du Sheng?"

Hearing him call people's names directly, the shop owner was a little displeased and said: "Du Shanren has a Taoist name, so you can't call him by his name casually."

Lin Xun smiled apologetically: "Where is Sixiangzhuang?"

With his smile, all the men and women on the side of the road couldn't move their feet. They just felt that the peach blossoms all over the mountains and plains were sprouting.

The shop owner is also worried, why does this young man look better than the girl's family?

"It's on the easternmost street," a girl said to him shyly at the door, "It's the property of Anyang Chengtian's family. It's very big and easy to find. You can see it when you go straight."

Lin Xun thanked her, and the girl immediately felt that half of her body was numb.

After seeing off Lin Xun and Qian Jiangyue, the boss patted his chest, drank a sip of water and silently covered the creases on his face, thinking that they all ate the same food and drank the same water, how could they look more beautiful than Peach Blossom Girl?

……

Lin Xun was about to walk ahead, but Qian Jiangyue took a step ahead of him in disgust, making it clear that he didn't trust the other party's sense of direction.

"I can still tell the difference between south, east and north." Lin Xun looked at his handsome profile and said, "Aren't you afraid of being chased all over the streets by those women who like you?"

Qian Jiangyue said indifferently: "I seldom go down the mountain, most people in the town probably don't know me."

The town is basically isolated from the outside world, and some knowledgeable young people have been to a place farther away, which is Anyang City.

Four Elephants Village is indeed easy to find, but it is not easy to find because of its large size. In terms of size, Zhuangzi is less than one-tenth of Luodeng Temple.

There is a long queue outside the village, and it is the most prominent on the whole street.

A woman holding a pill in a handkerchief passed Lin Xun and the others as if she had found a treasure, and there was a strange fragrance in the air.

Qian Jiangyue: "Have you heard it?"

Lin Xun nodded, "It's the aroma of malt."

"..."

He could feel that Qian Jiangyue's face was gloomy for a moment.

Lin Xun: "Is that daughter incense?"

His face seemed to be getting worse.

Lin Xun immediately said seriously: "Thousand-root grass and golden clematis are all herbal medicines for clearing away heat and detoxifying, but there is still some fishy smell mixed in them, I don't know what the ingredients are."

Qian Jiangyue didn't answer, but looked at the long queue.

The people who come and go are the people of the town, some are asking for medicine for their children, and most of them are young men.

Lin Xun was the last one. When he was in line, it was just in the afternoon, and the sun was very strong at the moment, so no one was waiting.

The person who applied the medicine was a pale man who felt that he would collapse if he was blown by the wind.

Lin Xun walked over: "I heard that this medicine is very effective."

"Don't dare to say," the man said, "I'm afraid I'm making a fool of myself in front of you two."

"My lord, you don't need to be humble," Lin Xun praised him very highly in his words: "It is said that your elixir can prevent infection, and we came here specially to ask for it."

"The sun is scorching hot, please ask Zhuang Zhong to speak." The man stretched out his hand and made a gesture of 'please'.

There are many trees in Zhuangzi, so it is a good place to enjoy the cool air.

The man seemed to enjoy it very much. He squinted his eyes under the shade of the tree and said, "It's just some ordinary herbs. There are no other effects."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and cupped his hands and said, "Du Sheng, I haven't asked the two great names yet."

Lin Xun: "It's just a medicine seeker, Mr. Du is really hospitable."

"Looking at the appearance of the two, they don't look like ordinary people. There must be other intentions for coming here."

Lin Xun stroked his hair casually, but pointed to his face with his fingers, and the look in Qian Jiangyue's eyes was self-evident: this is the importance of the posture of dragon and phoenix.

Qian Jiangyue had a headache from being shaken by his monstrous face.

"His name is Ye Bai," Lin Xun introduced, "My surname is Wan, Wan Liyun."

"Wanliyun?" Du Sheng's expression froze when he heard the name.

When going out, many people like to use pseudonyms, but this is the first time I have seen such a casual arrangement.

"The two of you are here..."

"Newly married, go on a trip."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xun was pushed back several meters by the wind blowing up from the scabbard, and almost hit another tree.

He straightened up, straightened his clothes calmly, and said, "I'm just kidding, we have some fun that other couples don't have."

Du Sheng's eyelids twitched...it was really a fatal interest.

Qian Jiangyue glanced at Lin Xun, but luckily she didn't draw her sword.

Lin Xun: "By the way, I heard that this house belongs to Anyang Tian's family."

Du Sheng nodded: "Thanks to Mr. Tian taking care of me, let me stay here temporarily."

The Elder Tian he was talking about was probably Tian Guangyuan, Lin Xun said with deep meaning: "Young Master Du is kind, there will always be good people looking after him."

"Where, the two of you are newcomers. The inn in the town has been closed a few days ago. I'm afraid I can't find a place to stay. Why don't you stay here first."

"The inn is not open?" Qian Jiangyue spoke for the first time after entering the door.

Du Sheng: "Since the strange disease broke out, no one has dared to come. In the past, people would come from the city to collect some wild game. Now..."

He shook his head, his tone a little desolate.

Lin Xun didn't ask any more questions, he could feel that no matter what he said, Du Sheng could answer every detail.

In the afternoon, Du Sheng continued to apply medicine. He was a very meticulous person, and he did not forget to order his servants to help prepare lunch.

The food was arranged delicately, and they were all served in small dishes. However, there were only porridge and vegetables in the circle. Lin Xun suddenly lost his appetite and pushed all the food to Qian Jiangyue.

Later in the day, the servant who delivered food to them in the village suddenly had a fever all over his body. The usual high fever made everyone in the village alert. Du Sheng closed the village ahead of time after hearing about it, and came to check in person.

It didn't take more than an hour from the beginning of talking nonsense to the whole body becoming stiff. Du Sheng quickly asked someone to tie the servant to the bed with a rope to prevent him from biting him when he got sick.

"Are you all right?" Du Sheng was a little worried.

The other servants didn't speak, but they were far away from Lin Xun and Qian Jiangyue. After all, these two people had contact with the servants who delivered the food before, so there was no guarantee that they would not be infected.

Lin Xun spread his hands, indicating that he was fine.

Du Sheng glanced at Qian Jiangyue, hesitantly said: "This Mr. Ye looks a little uncomfortable."

Lin Xun looked over, and it was true that Qian Jiangyue's face was flushed abnormally: "Mr. Du is worrying too much, he probably traveled all night, he just has a typhoid fever."

Du Sheng said suspiciously: "I'll ask someone to deliver some medicine later."

"Thank you."

……

Qian Jiangyue's condition was very bad, and before nightfall, she developed a high fever.

Lin Xun stretched out his hand and touched his forehead, it was hot, and quickly applied a wet towel to cool him down.

Qian Jiangyue: "Anyone with a little brain will leave now."

Lin Xun smiled and stayed by his side.

[System: The host has a very touching expression now. By the way, there is something wrong with the afternoon meal. 】

Lin found it back: "Qian Jiangyue is not an ordinary Taoist priest. It is impossible for him not to discover it based on his Taoism. He is probably pretending to be sick, so as to see what Du Sheng wants to do."

[System: In that case, why did the host waste time taking care of him? 】

"Brush favorability."

The system is silent.

Qian Jiangyue saw that she couldn't go away, so she laughed: "What is the source of this disease, and you haven't figured it out yet, so aren't you afraid?"

Lin Xun suddenly lowered his head, and the long eyelashes almost touched his eyes. No matter how a person's appearance can be changed, the eyes cannot be changed. From this angle, these eyes are like the purest glass, so beautiful Words.

He didn't do anything extra, just took off the towel, put it in water to re-wet it, spread it on his forehead, folded the corner of the quilt by the way, and said lightly: "You will kill me in the future to eliminate harm for the people, now How can you just fall down?"

Leaning against the bed rail, he seemed a little tired, but he soon regained his energy.

On the surface, he pretended to be hard-spoken and soft-hearted, but in his heart he was communicating with the system: "Quickly tell me, how am I pretending?"

[System: ...Stop talking. 】

Qian Jiangyue's eyes moved, but she finally said, "Go and rest when you're tired."

Lin Xun: "Sleep is nothing to night ghosts."

After speaking, he stood up and said, "I'll get you a warm bowl of porridge."

He didn't call for anyone, as if he was worried that someone would tamper with the porridge.

The sound of closing the door was very soft, Ruyu's hand was covered with a wet towel, and Qian Jiangyue let out a soft sigh.

……

Herbs can be seen everywhere in the Tianfu. Passing through a room, there are several people guarding it outside. There are not many guards in the entire Tianfu. This area is particularly eye-catching. One of them pointed him in the direction and signaled him to take a detour.

No matter how hot the summer is, the nights are cool, but these people are all soaked in clothes, as if they are too hot. Lin Xun can feel the heat wave coming from the house from a distance.

With the scent of medicine in the air, it is not difficult to deduce that it is an alchemy room.

Lin Xunduo paid attention to it, and left with the porridge in hand.

It was not a long distance, and after he got lost and turned around several times, it was already half an hour before he returned to the room.

The hot porridge was already lukewarm, and Qian Jiangyue lay on the bed with her eyes closed, as if she had fallen asleep.

Lin Xun took off the bamboo tube on his back, poured out a picture, spread it on the table, propped his head, looked at the back figure in the picture and recited the "Pure Heart Mantra" gently.

On the other side, Qian Jiangyue slowly opened her eyes, turned her head sideways, looked at the figure under the candlelight, and lowered her eyes.
