The sound of hooves can be heard as we head north.

Lin Jue thought as he walked. This Luo Monk has a chivalrous spirit.

Lin Jue recalled that time, in fact, Luo Monk had the ability to kill those strange monkeys alone, and it might even be easy. At least if the old strange monkey didn't spit poisonous mist, he would have been able to kill it very easily. As for the poisonous mist,

How much trouble it would cause him, I didn't see it at the time, and I still don't know now.

However, seeing that he had made some efforts, he was not stingy at all and distributed his money generously. Thinking carefully, he actually shared his love.

While he was thinking about it, the junior sister's voice came from next to him: "Brother, is the empress of Yaohua really in that cave?" As he asked, he looked at Fuyao.

Fuyao, whose five senses were always sharp, turned his head instantly and stared at her with a strange look on his face. At the same time, he had a look of confusion on his face.

I don’t know why, but these two people have been looking at it since they came here. It’s weird...

The fox shook his head and continued to move forward.

"I don't know." Lin Jue replied, "There's no need to delve into it." "Oh."

Junior sister nodded obediently.

The warrior surnamed Luo next to him said: "The 'Yaohua Empress' said she wanted to go north, and also said that there are deep mountains, big swamps, and miasma. I guess it is Kuze County. Only there are deep mountains, big swamps, and miasma." "Kuze County."

Ze County?”

"This is an ancient place name. It is said that there was a large swamp a thousand years ago. Later, the gods cut down the water gate and released the floodwater, and it became a wetland where people can live." Luo Monk said as he walked, "But this kind of place is big

The humidity was very heavy and it was uninhabitable. I don’t know why, but later there was miasma and there were many spirits. People in Kuze County gradually moved out."

After I finished speaking, I didn’t forget to add:

"In the past, Runze County was said to be a wasteland and dry land. It was the gods who opened the water gate and released the water. This made it the fertile water town it is today, hence the name Runze." "How long does it take to walk?"

"It should be more than a hundred miles away from us. They are all small roads and not easy to walk. We may not be able to get to the outside of Kuze County until tomorrow afternoon. I don't know how long it will take to find the horned snake." Luo Monk said, looking at

He glanced at them, especially the junior sister, and added, "We will delay Daochang Liu for a few days."

"No delay!"

The junior sister responded quickly and said.

Lin Jue glanced at her and then explained to Luo Monk: "The eight of us brothers have been walking all the way from Yishan for half a year. Although we have a destination, we are never in a hurry. If we encounter goblins on the road,

We will stop for a while about ghosts or other strange things, and sometimes we can save some money, so Luo Gong doesn't have to talk about them."

After hearing this, the junior sister nodded repeatedly. It would be better to walk slower.

The slower the better.

Luo Monk said: "The two Taoist priests can rest assured. Luo is not a stingy and greedy person. You will definitely have a share of the rewards promised by the Runze County Government and the big family in the village." "That's not what I meant.

..”

Lin Jue smiled, but did not refuse.

As Luo Jiao said, since not many people live in that place, there are no official roads, let alone official and horse roads. There are small roads all the way there.

Sometimes we even have to fight through thorns and thorns. Before we know it, it becomes dark.

They found a sheltered place by the river, cut down some soft withered grass, spread it on the ground to keep out the cold, and found some dead wood for firewood.

"Luo is used to traveling around the world. He only brought some cakes with him, but there seems to be wild pheasants here. The two Taoist priests will wait here for a moment. I'll go and come back. Maybe I can make a tooth sacrifice." Luo Monk said,

Take off the bow and arrow from the horse and head up the mountain.

I never thought there was a movement in the grass forest next to me.

A white fox and a colorful raccoon walked out one after the other, each dragging a colorful pheasant, both of which were plump. When the two beasts saw him looking at them, they even glanced at him strangely.

Luo Monk was silent and put back his bow and arrow.

Seeing the female Taoist priest setting up a stove in the open space not far away and piling up the firewood, he was looking for tinder and flints, but he saw the female Taoist priest pointing at the pile of firewood.

Suddenly, the firewood pile burst into flames.

Luo Monk had seen many people who knew magic, but rarely saw such a daily use of magic. So he had no choice but to cut up and wash the pheasant.

When I came back with the pheasant and prepared to roast it, I saw that the two Taoists had already taken out the pots and pans from the bamboo basket on the donkey's back, as well as many small porcelain bottles containing condiments. They had already cooked the rice.

Waiting for him. Luo Monk had no choice but to hand over the pheasant to them.

I originally thought that I invited them to help me just to be safe, so I would naturally have to deal with these chores along the way. However, I didn't expect that in the end, I would be more leisurely. And these two Taoists may not have as much experience in the world as myself.

But I feel much more comfortable on this road.

Cook rice and stew chicken, and feel full and satisfied.

Suddenly my whole body felt warm.

This is how you can sleep in the wilderness.

Lin Jue still took out the night watch lamp with nine lotus petals, found a relatively flat stone as a table, lit the lamp and placed it on it, and then lay down. Before he knew it, the sky was filled with stars, so dense that they couldn't fit in the canopy.

Same.

Naturally, my eyes couldn’t fit it in. It was about midnight.

The fox lay next to Lin Jue and raised his head first, with doubts in his eyes as he looked around.

I don't know why, even though it didn't hear any movement or see any people, it always had a strange feeling. After thinking about it for a while, it decided to wake up Lin Jue.

As soon as his nose touched Lin Jue's face and he was about to wake him up, he saw the light of the lamp on the stone shining brightly. "Bang!"

A loud bang woke everyone up.

Luo Monk and his junior sister were both in a light sleep, and they woke up immediately. One was copying a knife, the other was touching a sword, and they both stood up. Although Lin Jue slept warmly and peacefully, he opened his eyes instantly.

The three of them looked around, but found nothing. "Who?"

Lin Jue glanced at the night watch light and said, "The world is vast..."

The junior sister has already recited the Appearance Charm.

But before he finished reciting, four figures appeared in front of the weeds.

Three military attachés in armor and burqas, and a civilian official in red robes, were looking at them.

"Don't recite it. This is a spell given by the gods to mortals who are not skilled in magic to make demons and ghosts appear. We are gods and it won't work." The civil servant in red clothes said. "Is it you?" Luo Monk said.

"Why did Luo County Lieutenant come here?" said the civil servant in Zhu Yi, "and there are two more companions?" Lin Jue heard them talking and frowned.

I already had some guesses in my mind.

"I have important business in Kuze County." Luo Monk stared at them with some displeasure, "Why are you here?"

"Don't misunderstand me, Lieutenant of Luo County, we have not been following you. We just searched around the wilderness and didn't find my princess, so we went to Kuze County to look for her." "Huh?"

Luo Monk squinted his eyes and thought, "Do you suspect that your princess is hiding in the miasma forest in Kuze County?" Hearing this, the civil servant in Zhu Yi was obviously shocked.

But he did not dare to answer. He just glanced at the two Taoists beside Monk Luo and changed the topic: "May I ask the two Taoists, have you ever encountered any strange things in the wilderness outside Qingyan County?"

Junior Sister and Fox both looked at Lin Jue, waiting for his answer.

Lin Jue's eyes flashed with a hint of certainty. Then he felt that this was just right——

Ever since he realized that Princess Hua didn't want to go back to Huashan, Lin Jue didn't really want to go back and deliver the letter for her. Later, when he found out that Princess Hua was almost hiding, he even less wanted to deliver the letter. All because this was no longer the case.

Although you won't be embarrassed if you send an ordinary letter home by yourself, you may not be able to gain favor from it either.

But he agreed again, how could he break his promise? It was just right to meet these four priests. So Lin Jue said decisively:

"I've met him before!"

When Priest Zhu Yi heard this, he was shocked again.

Originally it was just a routine inquiry when meeting a stranger at night, but I didn't expect to get a real answer. Priest Zhu Yi quickly asked: "What's so strange?"

"Who are you?" Lin Jue asked back first.

"I am the priest of the East Peak Tour under the throne of Xiyue Mansion, and the three beside me are the priests protecting the mountain under the master of the mansion." Priest Zhu Yi said. "Taoist priests have ultimatums, do you have proof?"

"There are tokens and seals as proof!"

Priest Zhu Yi took out the token seal and showed it to him.

Lin Jue actually didn't see it clearly, but it didn't matter. It wasn't anything important anyway. He just turned around and took out a gold hairpin from the book next to him and said to them: "The strange one we met is your princess."

"Seriously?" Priest Zhuyi was immediately shocked.

The three military attachés behind him were also moved.

Luo Monk had an "as expected" look on his face.

"This is the golden step on the phoenix crown used by the princess for her wedding!" The priest in Zhuyi immediately stared at him, "Where is the princess? Where did you meet her? Why did she give you the hairpin?"

"It's in the wasteland outside Qingyan County, but she is no longer there, and we don't know where she went." Lin Jue did not say anything about the third senior brother, but just said, "We traveled here at night, but we couldn't find the place when it rained heavily.

She stayed with us for one night, and when she heard that we were going to the capital, she took this as a token and asked us to bring a message to Mr. Xiyue Mansion, nothing else."

"What message?"

"It is said that the Lord's kindness in raising and teaching her has been engraved in her heart, but she has already repaid her. It's a pity that the Weishui River God was short-lived. Now she has found another husband and married to someone else. It is inconvenient to marry again.

.She will go back to see the master in a few years." Lin Jue said truthfully, "Just these few words."

Several people gasped and looked at each other. At this time, there was only one thought in their minds——

It seems that I have found it, but it seems that I can't make the payment anymore. "Is there a written letter from the princess?"

"No."

"Then where did you meet the princess? Take us there immediately to have a look!" Priest Zhu Yi said anxiously.

"Hmm? I can take you to have a look, but right now I am accompanying Brother Luo to Kuze County to seek an antidote for the people of Runze County. Even if I take you there, we have to wait until we come back."

"No! This matter is of great importance!" Priest Zhu Yi said nervously, "Take us there quickly! If we can't find the princess, we have to ask the Taoist priest to go back to Huashan with us and make it clear to the master! Don't worry.

, my master will definitely not make things difficult for you, and he will definitely thank you generously!"

"I don't want those things." Lin Jue frowned.

"No! What's the big deal? No matter how big it is, how important are the lives of the people of Runze County?" Luo Monk also frowned and stood up and said, "Bold!"

Several armored military officers behind the priest in Zhu Yi immediately took a step forward and said, "Do you know who the Lord of Xiyue Mansion is?" Another military officer sternly rebuked: "The Lord of the Divine Palace has a destiny, how dare you Taoist cultivators not do so?

from?"

"Aren't gods also established by humans? As gods, shouldn't you put humans first?" Lin Jue said, "What's more, although I am a Taoist, I am a Taoist from the Spiritual Method Sect. Although the prince is big, what does it have to do with me?

"

"What Taoist Lin said is right." Luo Monk also said, with a bad tone, "Although the Lord of Xiyue Mansion has a respected status in the world, he is just a mountain god. His responsibilities are only within the mountains of Xiyue. If you don't take good care of the good weather fairies near Xiyue

Ghosts came to command us, but their brains were damaged by the incense?"

"audacious in the extreme!"

A military attache took a step forward with his sword in hand, and spoke with a voice that was filled with divine power, echoing endlessly in the mountains and forests. "You, a county lieutenant who has neglected his duties, dare to be so disrespectful to the prince. What crime do you know?"

"We just saw that you were upright the night before. During your tenure in Wan'an County, you also did a lot of good things for the people and had a good reputation. We don't want to argue with you. Do you really think we are afraid of you?" Several military attachés glared angrily.

With her eyes wide open and upturned eyebrows, coupled with her tall stature, broad shoulders and round waist, she really looks like a statue of a protector in a palace or temple.

The sound was like thunder.

If you are a little demon or a kid, you will be scared to death. "Then why don't you draw your swords?"

Luo Monk was not afraid at all, he just held the knife in his hand. This knife was no ordinary knife.

It is a family heirloom sword.

From the previous dynasty to the present, countless battles have been fought on the battlefield. After many winds, sand and blood, countless heads have been cut off, so many famous ministers and generals, and so many monsters and ghosts. Strange people and strangers have created countless souls and accumulated evil spirits.

Since he hit his hands alone, he has killed thirty-nine demons and fifteen ghosts. It's a pity that he hasn't killed any gods yet.

"I have heard that the former general had the ability to kill gods, and his deeds have been passed down to this day. Do you think Luo has the courage to do so?" Luo Monk stared at them with bright eyes.

"you."
