Chapter 67 The little temple demon is so powerful!
While Jiang and Ning followed the middle-aged man to his home, a third group of people arrived not far outside the village.
"They have already entered." Li Gu rode his horse, looking at the big locust tree in front of him, frowning slightly and said: "Uncle Dao, is that a person hanging on the locust tree?"
It was Li Gu and his party who came here to borrow Jiang Ning out of the academy in order to kill people and seize treasures.
But at this moment, in addition to him and Wang Jin, there was a third person in his team. This person was a burly man, wearing a coarse cloth coat, revealing two arms thicker than a child's waist, with bulging muscles and a thick back.
The simple sword with a handle and no scabbard is very fierce.
This person's name is Sword Slave, and he once studied at Qingling Academy. After graduation, he traveled around Kyushu and somehow developed a domineering swordsmanship. When he came back, he was recruited by Li Gu's uncle Chen County Duke and became his guest minister. Li Gu had not passed the spirit-raising period and knew that he could not defeat Jiang Ning, who was now in the early stage of Fengchu Realm. He wrote a letter to his uncle in Chen County early. The county official had no children and doted on his only nephew.
Zhu, immediately waved his hand and asked the cultivator Sword Slave to come over and support his nephew.
You know, even if you are a county official, the cultivators under his command, Keqing, are extremely valuable, and if you die, one of them will be missing!
Therefore, he usually keeps people by his side to protect him. This is also the reason why the county magistrate did not send his cultivators to deal with the situation after the guards from Jingping Village were killed. Instead, he went to Qingling Academy.
As a human being, if we are not close friends and have no benefits, who would be willing to pay such a high price to do things for you?
However, Li Gu was also smart and knew that this man was a powerful swordsman. He was extremely polite on the road and treated him like a swordsman, which made the man feel very fond of him.
This guy might be the future county magistrate of Chen County. With different identities, the meaning of calling him out is naturally different.
If it were Wang Jin who followed him, the knife slave would be too lazy to offend him.
"Back to the eldest son, he is indeed a human being." Dao Nu replied.
Li Gu's eyelids twitched, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Wang Caizi, what do you think?" he asked.
Wang Jin, who was looking like a little transparent person all the way behind him, mused: "Wang Yan's ten-day exam question is to stay in Jingping Village for seven days. Judging from the dean's mature character and the scene in front of him, there are probably no people in this village.
Peace."
Now that he has been exposed, Wang Jin no longer hides his clumsiness. If he shows some skills, he can still be reused by Li Gu. He can also take back the power of the Wang family and become the next head of the family.
"We might as well wait for two days before going in. If he dies inside, it will save us a lot of trouble. But if he doesn't die, it means that the danger inside is still under control. After we go in and kill people, we can escape safely."<
/p>
He knows how to pick up the slack better than anyone else.
The sword slave said disdainfully: "I am cautious, but as a cultivator, you must have the momentum to move forward, so that your cultivation can advance by leaps and bounds. How can you become a great person if you are timid?"
People who practice swords are inherently heroic, what’s more, the sword slaves are still practicing domineering swords!
"Senior taught me a lesson, and the boy has learned a lesson." Wang Jin's expression remained unchanged and he bowed to him respectfully.
Li Gu shook his head and smiled, assuming the posture of a superior person controlling others and asked: "Uncle Dao, what do you think?"
After the incident at Guanshan Cliff, he has become a lot smarter. Since I can't do it clearly, I'll do it in the dark. Just as his old father's earnest teachings say, just because a lion can't kill a prey, it doesn't mean that a poisonous snake can't do anything about it.
.
Now he is that poisonous snake!
The knife slave squinted his eyes and said, "Don't worry, eldest son, just pretending to be a ghost. I'm here. I don't care what ghosts and monsters he has. Let's first ask him whether he can withstand the knife in my back!"
Behind the man, the simple sword buzzed like a spirit.
Li Gu laughed.
"As long as Uncle Dao is here, I can't go anywhere. No need to wait, let's go to the village!"
He has been patient for too long, and now he just wants to get the cyan light ball on Jiang Ning's body quickly and achieve his own path to be a genius.
"With his treasure, a mere county magistrate, who the hell is rare!" Li Gu galloped on his horse, his face full of pride.
Obtaining the treasure in his heart and killing Jiang Ning is already a certainty.
Wang Jin frowned, a little dissatisfied with Li Gu's approach, but he was under the eaves, so he had no choice but to follow him.
The three of them ignored the man on the old locust tree and broke into the village directly.
"Three distinguished guests have come from afar. Don't be offended if we are too old to welcome you from afar." Beside the big well in the village, a white-haired old man wearing shabby patched clothes stood upright and smiled at Li Gu and the others. p>
If Jiang Ning were here at this moment, he would definitely be shocked.
The old man who spoke was the village chief who was frightened and crazy that he just met!
......
"Two immortals, this is my home." Sun Hu, a middle-aged man, said, pointing to the large courtyard where smoke was coming from the kitchen.
On the way here, Jiang Ning learned that the man in front of him was Sun Hu, the son of the village chief Sun Youzhi, and is now the new village chief of Jingping Village.
Jingping Village is a poor place, and even the village chief's home is not rich.
Outside the yard is a fence made of bamboo, and there are more than a dozen chickens and ducks inside. They are all gathering next to an old woman and eating grains on the ground.
Before anyone arrived, the man shouted into the yard: "Mom, I called the old man back, and I met two immortals who came to Qingling Academy to help the village deal with strange things."
The old woman raised her head, revealing a pair of different eyes on her old face.
One eye is normal, but the other one is full of turbid milky white without a black pupil. Being stared at makes one's spine somewhat chilly.
Wang Yan subconsciously moved closer to Jiang Ning, looking a little nervous.
"Okay, I'm going to serve the rice." There were not many ripples in the old woman's remaining eye, which was as cold as stagnant water.
She had no expression on her face and slowly stood up and walked into the kitchen.
The middle-aged man scratched his head and said with a smile: "You two immortals, please don't be surprised. Ever since the old man at home went crazy, my mother has become like this."
Jiang Ning glanced at it and asked: "Village Chief Sun, are you three the only ones at home?"
Sun Hu sighed and said: "There is an evil spirit in the village, and my mother is timid, so she took her back to her parents' home."
Jiang Ning asked with great interest: "Then why doesn't Village Chief Sun take the whole family out to seek refuge?"
Sun Hu looked at the village and said: "What will happen if I leave the village? They are all local farmers. They have lived here for most of their lives and are reluctant to leave."
While talking, the old woman had already walked out with the food.
The low-leg table soaked in oil gave off a strange smell, which was a bit pungent. Wang Yan frowned and didn't really want to eat it. Jiang Ning sat down confidently, picked up the white rice, and ate it mixed with the oily garlic sprouts and bacon.
Get up.
That’s what makes a fragrance!
After lunch, Sun Hu took the two to an empty room on the side and said, "It's a bit shabby, but the mattresses and quilts are all new and clean."
Originally, he arranged two rooms, but Wang Yan refused to live in them. She was worried that someone would suddenly appear in the room in the middle of the night. For this reason, Jiang Ning also teased her for being useless.
After Sun Hu settled the two of them, he went to the village to greet people and said he would kill pigs that night.
The people in the village are poor, but they know what it means to be human and worldly.
When an immortal comes over to help with something, it’s fine if he can’t give him any money as a reward. If he doesn’t even get some food and wine, it really doesn’t make sense.
In the room, Wang Yan saw the old woman in the yard and the frightened old village chief staring at her all the time, her scalp was numb and she felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.
It wasn't until Jiang Ning closed the door that she relaxed a little.
"Eat, eat, eat, you are not afraid that you are eating live human flesh and eating yourself to death." Wang Yan sat on the bed, her little face full of anger.
She was worried that there would be something wrong with the food, so she didn't dare to use her chopsticks at noon.
Jiang Ning sat next to her, and deliberately squeezed her body and said, "What if you don't eat? Today is only the first day, and there are still six days to go. Besides, even if you die, you have to be a starved person." "Bah, bah, crow's mouth, don't take me with you if you die." Wang Yan moved to the side in disgust.
Jiang Ning couldn't push forward, lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread out, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, Wang Yan felt bored and broke the silence: "Have you discovered anything until now?"
"Little Junior Sister Wang, this is your midterm exam, and you always ask me what's going on."
"Love to talk but don't talk!"
When she met Jiang Ning for the first time at Guanshan Cliff, she only thought that this man had good fighting ability and might have some reputation in the future, so she tried to talk to him out of curiosity and out of curiosity, but was rejected in the cold. How could she have imagined that he is now acquainted with her?
Only then did I realize that this person was a complete scoundrel.
"This family is very strange. Let's not act rashly on the first day." Seeing Wang Yan sitting there sulking, Jiang Ning laughed.
"The little demon in the temple is very windy. The village may not be peaceful tonight. Junior Sister Wang, you and I will take turns to keep vigil at night. Be careful..."
