Chapter 44: One Hundred Years. Part 2
July 13th
Early in the morning, the practitioners and merchants gathered in the lively market. Today was the day we agreed with the demon fox. Everyone was much more energetic. They lived on rice porridge these days and did not have to go hungry anymore.
Houling Town has returned to its former prosperity. Early in the morning, the townspeople will decorate the lanterns to prepare for tonight's lantern festival. The strange fragrance of plum blossoms still spread in the air.
Zhang Changheng tried several times, but he didn't know what kind of magic this was, but he could actually deceive his five senses. Yaoxiang appeared on the street, and a bunch of people surrounded him. The dry bones around him were just watching, and he didn't know what was going on. Several jailers came to see him to avoid any trouble.
"When the fourteenth day of July, you can leave after night."
Zhang Changheng nodded slightly. In the past few days, this demon has done nothing but to absorb some of their spiritual energy every night.
At this moment, a sound came from outside, and many people looked over. Yaoxiang jumped onto the roof and looked down at some people from the Taoist yamen coming in from the south of the town. The sharp-eyed Zhang Changheng immediately saw a Taoist sergeant among them, and the old Chen who stole taxes on the night they came.
"Everyone doesn't have to panic. This is just something that happened in the past, just watch it as a fun."
As soon as a bunch of people from the Daoya government came in, they started looking for people all over the streets. They heard that they were here to subdue demons, and Old Chen had been promoted from a Class B Dao Captain when he was out to a Class A Dao Captain.
After watching for a while, Zhang Changheng realized that they were going to catch Yaoxiang, and the Mei Mansion was also charged with hiding monsters for hiding monsters.
Many people in the village were talking nonsense that Yaoxiang, the maid who served the eldest son of the Mei family a few years ago, was a demon.
This time, the Mei family was in big business, including the manager, as well as the second son and the third lady, were all put into prison, and the Mei family's family's family was confiscated, and the culprit's little fox was also arrested.
Seeing all this, Zhang Changheng understood that Old Chen was probably stealing the money of the Mei family. Because he was exposed, he fled late at night and revealed everything about the Mei family. He came with this Dao Siyi and came in the name of catching monsters. He could also take over the money of the Mei family in the name of hiding monsters in private.
After all, having an affair with a monster is a serious crime. When Zhang Changheng thought of this, he looked at Lu Zeyu, who was watching the fun not far away, right next to Mr. Wu's stall.
At this time, Yaoxiang was just a little demon who relied on transformation spells to confuse the people, and could not turn into a human form.
The Mei family's reputation was really gone. The Taoist took the money and left some for Lao Chen, and then left without stopping, as if not far away in this remote town for a while.
The townsmen were bewitched by Lao Chen's remarks. Although the Mei family is a great family, Yaoxiang has a good relationship with the townsmen.
The Mei family became a demonic home that everyone shouted and beaten up in Houling Town overnight.
Zhang Changheng couldn't stand it anymore. He wanted to scold these people who had already died. On weekdays, Yaoxiang did not do evil, but instead helped the people run errands, manage the fields outside the town, guide them in the mountains, and even rescued many people.
"It really deserves to be awesome!"
Zhang Changheng also changed his eyes and looked at Yaoxiang sitting on the roof with a lonely expression.
A day passed, the sun set, and night fell.
"Brother Lu, do you know why she is here?"
At night, Zhang Changheng stepped into Mr. Wu's house with doubts, and Lu Zeyu was fiddling with gadgets all over and over.
"Ah? It should be someone she promised to wait here."
Lu Zeyu also said that Yaoxiang would look for intersections with a large crowd from Houling Town every time at this time, so that some people would borrow spiritual energy from them after they came in.
Zhang Changheng was thinking, and looked at Lu Zeyu with a lot of relief. After a day of observation, Lu Zeyu was not a villain. He thought of Xier's affairs, but he did not explain. After all, Xier planned to wait for the end of the matter.
"Brother Lu, Zhang has something unknown. Can you please answer questions?"
Lu Zeyu nodded and continued to color a little man with a tender and rough face.
"How did you practice to get to this point."
"I remember that I used to practice qigong except eating and sleeping every day. I remember that this is how the master taught me."
Zhang Changheng was shocked and bowed with his fists.
"I admire you."
Looking at Lu Zeyu's innocent appearance, Zhang Changheng couldn't help but sigh and think.
No wonder Panqi Sect is so powerful, all the disciples under Feng Youyang are powerful.
Zhang Changheng had heard his master talk about Panqi Sect. This sect was founded by a wild monk for less than a hundred years. Sixty years ago, after the Taoist named Panqi failed to ascend to immortality, his disciples also died in the disputes in the world at that time, and finally only Feng Meiyang was left.
Just as everyone thought that this sect was withering, a long sword swept across Tianyuzhou. The name of Panqi Sect was influential in the Taoist world in just a few years, and one by one was amazing evildoers appeared. More than ten years ago, Panqi Sect fell into silence again, looking at Lu Zeyu and Zhang Changheng thought.
It seems that he should be a disciple who has just been born recently. After all, he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the time is also in line. Perhaps Feng Yuyang found another genius, so he closed the mountain gate and was idle in the wild crane.
It was midnight again, and the monks and merchants once again provided spiritual energy. This spiritual energy was not absorbed much, and it would only make people tired and they could recover after a nap.
"You are leaving tomorrow night. We may not have the chance to meet again in the future. Can you tell me about that Miss Cui Min?"
Lu Zeyu looked at Yaoxiang strangely.
"Minmin, you don't know her."
Yaoxiang holds the bell.
"The creation of the immortal in this painting is unique in this world. Does the Minmin you mentioned really have a bell that is exactly the same as mine?"
Lu Zeyu confirmed it carefully several times and nodded.
After briefly talking about Cui Min, Yaoxiang punched her with a fist, and forgot that Lu Zeyu's head was harder than a stone, so she started to blow.
"You stone mind, people like you so much, how can you be so heartless? He is about to get married, and you are still making these rags here. A woman is willing to entrust her body and mind to you. This shows how much you have in her heart. Do you understand?"
Lu Zeyu said after thinking for a moment.
"I like Minmin very much."
Yaoxiang looked at this expression and knew what was going on. She was so angry that she stamped her feet.
"If I were as good as you, I would definitely......"
"Go to sleep."
Lu Zeyu yawned, and Yaoxiang grabbed his collar.
"Go to the girl's room to sleep."
"Xi'er? Why?"
Yaoxiang sighed and patted her chest.
"There are no so many reasons. If you want to go, you can go. For you, wherever you sleep and who you get along with, as long as you have done a "buy and trade", it will be true!"
Lu Zeyu nodded and was about to leave, but was still dragged by Yaoxiang.
"Do you know what love is? Do you know what longing is? Do you know......... what love is?"
Lu Zeyu was confused and thought for a long time and said three words.
