The old man carrying the lantern, the doctor who worshiped the officials in the Ministry of Rites Temple, chose a quiet street and finally came to the Town God's Pavilion in Hongzhu Town. Before he crossed the threshold, the old man entered the door first with the lantern in his hand, as if walking through the door.
After a while, there were ripples in the water, which were used to isolate the yin and yang. The ripples in the well water did not interfere with the river water. They disappeared in an instant, but in the old man's big red lantern, there were wisps of fireflies flying around and hitting the wall, and they were full of light.
On the lantern in the old man's hand, someone wrote four simple small characters with a red pen, and the ghost came and went.
In the City God's Pavilion, which is responsible for the yin and yang affairs separately from the county government, an old man in a Confucian shirt with a face like a red date bowed to the visitor and said loudly: "The City God of Red Candle Town, pays homage to the doctor."
To the left and right of the old man in Confucian robes stood a civil servant man holding a jade scepter, and a general wearing armor and a sword, with a civet cat squatting on his shoulder. They are all gods and spirits that can be classified as yin objects. The appearance of the three
, exactly the same as the clay statue of the City God here and the statues of the civil and military gods enshrined in the Wusheng Temple in Wenchang Pavilion.
The old man holding the lantern nodded in return and said solemnly: "You three must have received the secret order from the imperial court. Within a thousand miles, you can enshrine the gods of mountains, rivers, land, rivers, as well as the Chenghuang Pavilion and the Wenwu temple.
The gods are going to intercept and kill a man with a sword named A Liang. If anyone dares to be afraid of the enemy or deliberately hides his strength on a certain route of the man's retreat in the four directions of south, east, north and west, he will be punished afterwards.
If you smash the golden body, the fragments of the water god's golden body will be buried in the roots of the mountains, and the fragments of the mountain god will sink to the bottom of the river. You who came from one pavilion and two temples will suffer the same fate, and you will all be removed from the local county annals."
The old man showed a smile and relaxed the atmosphere, "I'm not asking you to rush to death, I'm just trying to stop you with all my strength. Your Majesty personally plans the strategy, so it's a great opportunity for you to make contributions. Now that I, the Great Li Cavalry, am marching southward, it is unstoppable. Once the territory expands,
On the territory of the subjugated country, many better and higher positions will be vacated. What this means to you, and the knowledge and knowledge involved, you have been in the divine position for a long time, and you all understand it."
The three local gods spoke generously.
"My subordinates will never dare to do anything half-heartedly!"
"We must go all out!"
"I died once in battle for Da Li during my lifetime, and now I have been able to enjoy the incense for hundreds of years. I should risk my life to have my golden body broken into pieces, and let that cowardly and vicious dog be crowned here!"
The old man nodded happily, "There are great rivers and mountains in the south. Da Li will definitely need to rely on you in the future to help control the destiny of the mountains and rivers. In short, we will work together to support this great event."

In the Yuyejiang Shrine a little closer to Hongzhu Town, the burly man who once appeared on Guanshui Street with the Lantern Old Man, his true identity is the doctor of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War. It can be said that this strong man is in charge of most of the Great Li Dynasty.
The power of life and death of the Jianghu people is only compared to the old man's temple of rites and officials. The former is described as dealing with the bastards in the mud pond, while the latter is talking about immortality with the immortals.
In the Temple of the River God, there are two impressive Jiangshui Gods. One of them is holding a black iron gun. From time to time, golden inscriptions flash and light up. A green snake wraps its arms. The smart green snake opens its small mouth intermittently and spits out a mouthful.
Mouth smells white.
The two river gods were filled with misty water vapor.
The strong man said in a deep voice: "Once the net is closed, the swordsman will probably flee to the south, so I want you to meet here. When the time comes, I will be the first to stop him. I don't want to kill the Taoist friend but the poor Taoist."
I want to do it, but now His Majesty the Emperor might be watching us, so I don’t dare to do it even if I have ten more courages. I hope you two will also not disappoint His Majesty the Emperor."
After the man finished speaking, he strode out of the Jiang Shen Temple and faced Hongzhu Town in the north. He simply took off his shirt, revealing a body of strong muscles and ferocious tattoos. A shoulder-length dragon that ordinary warriors would never dare to tattoo, and a tattoo on his back.
A tiger emerges from the forest.
Under the moonlight, the man crossed his arms across his chest, motionless as a mountain, and his momentum was high.

On the long street leading to the gate of Pillow Inn, the woman who tried to persuade Lin Shouyi to return to Changchun Palace with her did not go far. Instead, she chose a wine shop on the street where a young and beautiful woman was the shopkeeper.
Drinking wine, telling vulgar and dirty jokes with the guests, the woman's face remained unchanged, and her timid husband just buried his head in his work.
The Supreme Elder of the Changchun Palace was sitting next to the girl who rowed the boat on the painted boat. She was a boat girl who had been a lowly family member for generations, but this time she got a great blessing. She was chosen by the master next to her and was going to be taken away.
Changchun Palace practices legendary magic. According to the master who fell from the sky, the girl is very talented. It is probably because she has lived by the water for generations and is entangled with the Chongdan River. Therefore, she is naturally close to the water and is expected to be among the top.
Excellent qualifications for the fifth floor.
The girl didn't know what it meant to be on the fifth floor. At this moment, she imitated her master and drank a small sip of strong wine. It was not because she was afraid of getting drunk. There are all boat girls who don't know how to drink. It was because of the master's natural demeanor that the girl
I can't help but want to imitate.
The girl asked softly: "Master, why doesn't that young man want to follow us to Changchun Palace?"
The woman, whose real age was almost two decades old, smiled lightly and said, "It can't be said that he is ungrateful, I can only say that the fate has not yet arrived. Of course, cultivation is about cultivating one's strength. It is like building a house, which requires a solid foundation, but
What determines the final height depends on how far you have cultivated your mind. That Lin Shouyi has a firm mind and is a good person born to practice Taoism. Even if he does not enter my Changchun Palace, he can still go very far. So you have to
If you work hard, you will have the opportunity to not feel ashamed of yourself next time we meet again."
The girl hummed, lowered her head and took a sip of wine.
It has to be said that this woman, who seems to be eternally young, is very generous and generous. Hongzhu Town is shocked for the first time.
Fortunately, the momentum is great, but the movement that really affects the houses and buildings in the town is actually very small. It is just the shaking of tables and chairs on the bank and the swaying of the boat in the river.
The woman's face changed slightly, "She is indeed a Qi practitioner from the fifth floor."
The woman felt heavy and said softly: "I just hope it's not the legendary twelfth floor or the military strategist on the eleventh floor."
She said to the girl: "After I leave, no matter what happens, don't panic, just stay where you are."
Once gods in their realm fight, mortals will suffer disaster. Even if they know that disaster is coming, they may not be able to run away.
It is really unimaginable, if there are no seventy-two academies in the world, there are no most powerful military monks outside the three religions, and they have to rely on the dynasty innately, and there are not so many landscape gods to help the monarchs of the dynasty keep tabs on and restrain the forces on the mountain, then
How chaotic will this world be?
She couldn't imagine it.
Even if the woman herself is a fairy on the mountain.

A Liang came to the open space outside the corridor, with his sleeves hunting, he held the green bamboo knife and the narrow knife auspicious talisman with both hands respectively, and took a big breath. It seemed that there was no longer the cover of the bamboo hat and some kind of deliberate suppression. This man
I can finally stretch my body and no longer have to restrain my hands and feet.
A Liang seemed uneasy, looked somewhere, and warned: "Although you are a Yin god who has accomplished Taoism, the country of Dali is now booming. Every big city in the city has a strong yang energy, and it is innate to restrain people like you."
Ghostly objects, you can ask Lin Shouyi to try to refine a few pure yang talismans in the stack of talismans as your customs clearance document."
Not far from the corridor, after A Liang spoke, a group of shadows appeared, and a person slowly appeared in the field of vision of Chen Pingan and four others. Black mist shrouded, except for a clearly visible head, with distinct facial features.
, a pair of snow-white eyes without pupils, which are strange and scary, and the tall figure is vague and blurry, like a dragon entering the clouds, with its head but not its tail.
The so-called Yin God nodded.
A Liang said with a smile: "Then I will leave these children to you. At least they will be escorted to Dali Yefu Pass, and then it will depend on their own fate. It is not a problem for such an old hen to protect its young after all. Thousands of people
A person's promise is not as good as a person's elaboration, I believe in you."
The Yin God asked hoarsely in the authentic small town dialect: "Senior, why are you willing to believe in a Yin creature of unknown origin?"
A Liang was happy and said bluntly: "Look at your face, you look so inhumane. At first glance, you can tell that you have a cold face, a warm heart, and a chivalrous heart."
Yin Shen hesitated for a moment, "Is it because you look like your senior?"
A Liang was so choked by these words, "You're such a bastard... you're so funny when you talk."
Yinwu grinned and said nothing.
Li Huai had already hid behind Li Baoping, tugged on the sleeve of the little girl in the red cotton-padded jacket, and said in fear: "Baoping, Baoping, it's a ghost, it's really a ghost."
Lin Shouyi's face was full of curiosity, but he tried to restrain his curiosity so as not to look too directly and offend the Yin God. "Yunshanglanglangshu" has roughly introduced that there is a way for Yin objects to become gods. One is to rely on believers
The power of incense and desire is, secondly, parasitic in the courage of military strategists, and thirdly, it is like practicing as a Qi practitioner. This road is the most rugged and difficult to travel, but once it becomes powerful, the Yin Shen soul is also the most stable, even if it is exposed to the scorching sun,
Breathing in the wind, bathing in Sanskrit sounds, etc., can in turn become shortcuts to improve one's own cultivation.
The Yin God glanced at Chen Pingan, and then looked at the coward Li Huai hiding at the back.
Li Huai cried sadly, "Don't keep looking at me, look at Lin Shouyi, look at Chen Pingan, or else look at A Liang."
The strange Yin God, who had been following him all the way but with a measured attitude, slowly dispersed, and the gloomy corridor returned to normal.
A Liang raised his eyes and looked at the distance to the north. He was not in a hurry to leave. He smiled and said: "It was a little unexpected, so we still have some time to chat. If you have anything to say, please hurry up. I'm so flattery."
, Just come and flatter me. If we meet again in the future, we will never know that it is the Year of the Ox and the Moon of the Horse."
Li Baoping was the first to speak, "A-Liang, if the knife is broken, you don't have to return it to me, because I'm friends with you!"
A Liang smiled heartily, extended his thumb towards the little girl, and said, "These words are heart-warming, I like them! But I will definitely return the auspicious charm to you intact when I get back, so don't worry."
Lin Shouyi asked seriously: "A Liang, do I need to be tougher in my future physical training than a pure martial artist or a military monk among Qi practitioners?"
A Liang shook his head and said solemnly: "No, some people are suitable for this, such as me, and some are not suitable, such as you, Lin Shouyi's cultivation path, you can only work hard on the word "profound", not "excellent"
It’s a waste of energy on words.”
The man who had lost his hat said these words very seriously.
