white clothes

The next day, the autumn air was crisp and cloudless.

Xie Chenyuan saw his younger brother handing over the greeting card, so he and Shen Zong stood at the gate of Lingchuan City Mansion and waited.

"Brother, I found a few fox demons in Yaotai Pavilion yesterday." Holding the giant sword, Wen Han talked with Shen Zong and exchanged information: "Then followed a fox demon out of Yaotai Pavilion, but the fox The demon was cunning and used a tail trick to make it run away, and when it returned to Yaotai Pavilion, it saw the mouse demon in the farmyard on the outskirts, staring at a baby, and chased it to the city."

"You mean, the rat demon has something to do with the fox demon in Yaotai Pavilion?" Shen Zong stroked his chin, his brows and eyes brightened, and the red jade coral beads shone brightly in the sun. He bought a set in the mall today Dressed in a white robe, he felt more and more handsome when he looked in the mirror, so that he would look more handsome standing beside Xie Chenyuan.

"It's possible. Brother said that Shi Wuyi specially lured you out, and in the conversation yesterday, he also said that Yaotai Pavilion is very fragrant and easy to attract mice." Wen Han analyzed.

"Things are a bit complicated." Shen Zong looked at Xie Chenyuan, and found that he... seemed to be in a daze.

"Shen Yuan?"

Xie Chenyuan came back to his senses, looked at Shen Zong and Wen Han and the others: "What's the matter?"

"What was brother thinking just now?" Wen Han asked first.

"I'm thinking, there seems to be more incidents of monsters eating people recently. Langya is a mountain ghost. It stands to reason that his appetite has been suppressed by his reason for at least 100 years. Why can't he suppress it suddenly this year, and like the sawtooth rat? Ordinary mountain beasts should be enough for them." Xie Chenyuan looked at the sky and muttered to himself: "Why are these monsters so hungry and want to eat people all of a sudden?"

"Although the fox demons in Yaotai Pavilion are not cannibals, they gather abnormally to suck the spirit of monks."

"Isn't this a very strange thing?"

Wen Han was shocked when he heard his senior brother's words, his chills surged up, his throat was dry, yes, it is not that there are no incidents of demon cannibalism, but they are all at the level of big demons, which only happen once every three or four hundred years. The big monsters of the family have been sleeping for hundreds of years, and if they wake up hungry, they will eat people. However, these big cannibals were all beheaded or captured by various sects and put into prison. It is absolutely non-cannibal, let alone the saw-toothed rat monster. Once discovered, the orthodox sect will kill all the rat monsters in that area, and never leave any harm.

Thinking about it now, these monster races are a bit abnormal.

The human race is powerful, and the monster race is forced to retreat to the wild area, and it is rare to see so-called monsters eating people.

"Senior brother is right, there may be some changes in the monster clan, so I will write to tell the master and the head what happened to them at night." Wen Han's dark face was serious, and his tone was dignified.

With a "squeak", the gate of Lingchuan City Mansion was opened.

"Are they Xie Jianjun and Wen Jianjun from the Daomen? Please don't blame me if you are far away, please don't blame me." Xu Bucai approached with a smile on his blue gown, who looked only in his forties. Thank Shen Yuan and the others.

"You don't need to be polite, the city lord, my junior brother and I have just arrived here." Xie Chenyuan introduced the young people around him: "This is Shen Zong, my good friend."

"Mr. Shen is an outstanding talent, he is indeed Xie Jianjun's friend." Xu Bucai praised his beautiful beard while stroking his chin.

Shen Zong convinced Xu Bucai's eloquence.

Where is this lack of talent? He is obviously versatile, and he speaks warmly and thoughtfully without losing politeness, which is very attractive.

"Why didn't the sword master come to Lingchuan to inform him in advance, so that Xu can clean up the dust for the sword master." Xu Bucai pretended to complain, and extended his hand to invite: "Come, the mansion has prepared delicious food and wine, just wait for the three of you to take your seats. up

, please feel welcome. "

"That's bothering City Master Xu." Xie Chenyuan entered the room, Shen Zong and Wen Han also followed.

"Don't bother, your Daomen, Qinglian Sect, Cifo Temple, Hehuan Sect, Pharmacist Valley, and Qianji Pavilion are all righteous sects, and they have made outstanding contributions to the stability of the Longevity Continent. You come, I welcome you before it's too late, just right My poor son is also in the mansion, if Lord Jian doesn't dislike him, he can let him take you to visit Lingchuan City." Xu Buyan was indeed very happy.

The Daomen is the head of the righteous way, and Xie Chenyuan is a proud son of the Daomen who only knows his name, and he rarely shows up. Now that he appears in Lingchuan, although Xu Bucai is a little puzzled, he is still mostly happy. He told the maid beside him:

"Chun Ye, go and call the young master over, and tell him that I have something to look for him."

The three of them took their seats in Luohua Pavilion.

I saw melon and fruit desserts, light snacks, and white jade jugs and wine glasses already set up on the table, and there was a faint aroma of fruit wine.

Xu Bucai sat in the main seat, Xie Chenyuan was on the left, Wen Han was on the right, Shen Zong followed Xie Chenyuan all the time, and naturally sat next to his seat.

"Sword Lord Shangxie, Sword Lord Lingxiao, Mr. Shen, this is monkey wine brewed by my wife from spiritual fruits on Laojun Mountain a few years ago. It is especially suitable for drinking in golden autumn. Now, let's drink it to the fullest."

The clever maid took a knee step, and stepped back after serving the wine.

Xie Chenyuan looked at the clear yellow liquid in the white jade cup, and took a sip. It was slightly sweet with the aroma of spiritual fruit, and it was sweet in the throat. It was much better than the drunkenness of the immortals in Langya Mountain.

After drinking and admiring the scenery of the lake and mountains, City Master Xu stroked his beard and finally got down to business.

"The two sword lords made a special invitation today, but what's the matter?"

Wen Han put down the wine in his glass and said to the city lord: "City lord Xu, my senior brother and I killed a saw-toothed rat monster outside the Yaotai Pavilion last night. The rat monster had flesh and blood in its teeth, and it already showed signs of cannibalism. Does City Master Xu know about this?"

After finishing speaking, he released the body of the rat demon from the storage bag.

"Ahhh." A terrified female voice sounded, Miss Ruyu looked at the mouse at her feet with a pale face, her slender body was on the verge of falling, Xu Yan was overjoyed, and the resentment of being called by his father disappeared immediately. He quickly hugged the beauty and comforted him: "Ruyu, don't be afraid, I will protect you, but you are just a mere rat demon."

"Evil!" Xu's beard trembled, he slammed the table and stood up: "What kind of stupid things are you talking in public?"

"There are monsters in Lingchuan City, how can you be kidding in your eyes, or such a vicious ogre, it really makes me mad."

"Hey, Dad, Dad, don't be angry." Seeing that his father was really angry, Xu Yan quickly put Miss Ruyu on the seat, and then ran to his father to admit his mistake.

"What I mean is that if there is a rat demon, we should eliminate it as soon as possible, and don't let it hurt people anymore."

Xu Bucai sat down and was annoyed when he saw his son. He frowned and asked Xu Yan: "What's the matter with that woman? I'm talking about business with the two sword lords of Daomen. Why did you bring her here?"

"Ruyu...Ruyu her..." Xu Yan didn't expect that his father would have a big guest today, and suddenly felt that he had made a mistake, that his family's ugliness should not be publicized, and that it was really wrong for him to bring the girl from Huage here.

"Speak!" Xu Bucai slammed his wine glass.

Xu Yan's eyelids twitched, and he said without thinking: "Ms. Ruyu is a dancer of Yaotai Pavilion. She sprained her foot during the neon dress dance last night, so I brought her back for treatment."

The opposite of Xie Chenyuan happened to be that Ruyu girl, her complexion turned pale, she looked weaker, her beautiful eyes were stubborn and tearful, she seemed to be hurt by Xu Yan's lies, she was still coaxing tenderly last night, today she is in every possible way Covert excuses.

Xu Bucai looked at his useless son coldly, thinking of the stupid things he did before, his heart was very blocked, and his eyes became more and more unkind.

Xu Yan was so frightened that his legs trembled.

"Chunye, take the young master down and put him in confinement."

As soon as Xu Yan called out, Chun Ye covered his mouth and dragged him down.

Such a dignified young master, he can't even hold back his own maid.

Ruyu's face changed slightly, and she quietly sat up straight.

"You go back, my son is very playful, don't believe the nonsense that he wants to marry you." Xu Bucai waved his hand and let Ruyu leave on his own.

Ruyu bit her lip, and finally left Linshui Pavilion with her servant.

"I made you laugh." Xu Bucai rubbed the center of his brows, feeling a few years older for a moment, he sighed: "Every family has a hard-to-read scripture, my son is naughty and ignorant. A month ago, I sent my wife to Qinglianzong to cultivate in anger."

"Writing can't be done, martial arts can't be done. The old man really doesn't know how to teach him. He won't listen to him, and he can't be beaten to death. It's difficult for monks to have heirs. Our husband and wife only have such a son. I really don't know what to do."

Xu Bucai drank a glass of wine and was very depressed. He didn't ask his son to be more promising, but he couldn't help the wall with mud. He was looking for flowers and willows all day long, and he didn't practice. If it wasn't for Xu Yanchang who resembled him, he would really doubt it. Is Xu Yan his son?

Xie Chenyuan listened and complained, but didn't speak.

Wen Han took a look at City Master Xu, seeing that his sorrowful expression was not a fake, he took a sip of wine silently, Dao Dao Sect also had stubborn disciples, and later he changed his mind under the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall and became a new man.

Shen Zong was listening when he suddenly heard the voice of the system.

"Ding, congratulations to the player for entering the dungeon of Lingchuan's Sorrow." Huh?Is this another mission?Shen Zong regained his spirit.

"Players and your lovers are requested to resolve the Lingchuan Disaster together."

"A mysterious gift will be sent when the task is completed."

The tragedy of Lingchuan felt more serious than last time, Shen Zong glanced at the city lord of Lingchuan City.

"Let's not talk about worrying things, two sword lords, Mr. Shen, please tell me about the rat demon in detail, and I will go with the guards to find out if there are any other evil rat demons."

Wen Han explained what happened last night in detail, but concealed the fact that they went to Yaotai Pavilion, and only said that they passed by a village near Lingchuan City and saw the rat demon.

"I already know that the village should be Wu's Village, backed by a deep forest, it's a remote small village." Xu Bucai looked at Xie Chenyuan and the others: "The three of you will stay in the humble house and have a toast when I come back."

Xie Chenyuan stood up: "There are rat demons making trouble near Lingchuan City, so there is no reason for me and my junior to watch."

"Senior brother said that my brother and I are willing to work with the city lord to investigate the rat demon cannibalism incident." Wen Han also said.

When Shen Zong saw it, he raised his hand: "Everyone is responsible for the common people in the world, and I am willing to go."

A smile appeared on Xu Bucai's face, and he was very pleased: "In that case, let's go together."

……

An hour later, Xu Bucai arrived at Xiaowu Village with a team of guards.

After inspection, it was found that no children were lost in the village, and no murders occurred recently.

Xu Bucai stroked his beard, and patted the horse under him: "The rat demon often moves in groups. Since it's not in Wujia Village, it must be nearby. Let's go find it separately."

Seeing that the city lord and the others were going on the main road, Xie Chenyuan chose another path.

Not long after, I saw an earthen grave in Wujia Village by the side of the road, hidden deep in the dense forest.

"Brother Xie, Brother Shen, Brother Wen, what a coincidence, we meet again." Shi Wuyi poked his head out of the bushes with a wooden basket on his back, and greeted warmly.

"Does this count as meeting by fate?" Shi Wuyi looked at Xie Chenyuan with a smile.

Xie Chenyuan saw that there were mushrooms in his wooden basket: "Master Daoist, did you come to pick mushrooms in the morning?"

"Yes, the mushrooms here are big and strong. They like to grow in dark and humid places. When they are boiled in the pot, they are extremely tender. I come here early to pick them to avoid being picked by others."

Xie Chenyuan touched the falling yellowish leaves with his fingertips, shot out quickly, brushed Shi Wuyi's ear, and nailed it to a big tree trunk not far away.

Shi Wuyi turned around with a unchanged smile.

Shen Zong looked sideways, and found a colorful snake on the big tree, which was pinned down by a fallen leaf at the moment, and died within a few breaths.

"Teacher and fellow Taoist should be careful, there are many poisonous insects and snakes in the dense forest." Xie Chenyuan's voice was clear and moist.

"What Brother Xie said is that I am not good at cultivation, so why not just stay with Brother Xie, and hope that Brother Xie, for the sake of being a fellow practitioner, will treat me a little bit like Buddha." What Shi Wuyi said The face is not red and the heart is not beating.

The thick skin made Wen Han amazed.

This guy is at the alchemy stage like him anyway, how can ordinary monsters hurt him.

Xie Chenyuan: "Master and Taoist friends are joking."

Shen Zong saw Shen Yuan's alienated attitude towards Shi Wuyi, he thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "Master and Daoist, you also know that I am an ordinary person, and Shen Yuan already has this trouble around me, so I must take care of it." Without you, you can go with Brother Wen, and it will be more convenient to take care of each other."

Shi Wuyi waved her fan: "Brother Shen, why do you underestimate yourself? Since you can be by Brother Xie's side, you must have something special."

"I didn't underestimate myself." Shen Zong looked at Shi Wuyi very seriously: "In this world, I can't leave Xie Chenyuan."

Shi Wuyi put away the fan, the fox eyes narrowed slightly.

Shen Zong looked at him without guilt.

"Since this is the case, I won't bother you, brother Xie." Shi Wuyi looked at Wen Han: "There are still some mushrooms deep in the dense forest. Brother Wen, shall we pick mushrooms together?"

Wen Han's dark face was paralyzed, and he walked away: "Yeah."

After the two left, Shen Zong crossed his arms and let out a soft snort. This teacher, without manners, thought of ways to get closer to Shen Yuan, and there must be some ulterior secret.
