The old man in black turned around when he heard the sound. The young Taoist had already come closer, and a spell in his right palm hit the old man's forehead directly.
The old man in black frowned slightly and raised his left arm to protect his forehead.
Seeing that he could not achieve anything, the young Taoist retreated to the next best thing. He pressed down with his right palm and hit the chest of the old man in black.
The moment the young Taoist hit the old man's chest, the yellow paper charm suddenly exploded, and a wave of cold air came out between the young Taoist's palm and the chest of the old man in black.
The young Taoist flew backwards quickly under the impact of the air wave. The old man in black took several steps back and hit a wooden table behind him before he stopped. The chest of the black clothes and the quilt inside were It shattered a huge piece.
Seeing that the fight was getting more intense, Nanfeng tried to avoid it, but at this time the two injured men blocked the back door. The young Taoist who had been knocked away earlier turned back and blocked the front door. The two had nowhere to retreat.
"In a world of peace and tranquility, how can ghosts and evil spirits dare to show off their evil ways? How long will it take for them to be captured without restraint?" the young Taoist said in a serious voice. This man must be in his mid-twenties, with a slender figure and handsome features. He is full of righteousness and has martial arts skills. He is truly a young hero.
The old man in black looked down at his chest, then looked up at the young Taoist, "What the Taoist said is absolutely true, but I have some unexplainable reasons. I must take this girl away."
Seeing the humble attitude of the old man in black, the young Taoist's face softened slightly, "What are your difficulties that you can't explain?"
"Master Lingyun, don't listen to his nonsense. Before you arrived, he injured two of my junior brothers with demonic magic. He was ruthless and definitely not a kind person." The man holding the girl took a few steps back and talked with his two junior brothers. Stand in one place.
Ling Yunzi never looked at the person who spoke, but just stared at the old man in black, waiting for him to speak.
The old man in black frowned and pondered. After a moment, he raised his head and said, "This girl is not an ordinary person. Now her identity has been revealed by the demon. The wolf demon that attacked the palace at night half a month ago was just an outpost. She will lose her life sooner or later if she stays in the palace."
"Who are you? Where are you taking Miss Yuan Er to?" Ling Yunzi asked sideways.
The old man in black looked around. At this time, besides him and Ling Yunzi, there were three warriors in the room, as well as Nan Feng and Fatty. The shop owner was also hiding behind the counter, and it was difficult to talk due to the crowd.
Nanfeng was smart and knew not to listen to disrespect, so he took the fat man and moved carefully to the back door.
As soon as they moved, everyone immediately looked at them. The fat man originally wanted to carry the rice porridge, but he was so frightened that he immediately withdrew his hands and slowly moved out under the pull of Nan Feng.
After getting out of the back door, Nanfeng closed the door and then pulled the fat man back to the room.
"Why go? It's great to hear it." The fat man complained. The old man's previous words had already aroused his curiosity.
"If you listen too much, you may not be able to leave." Nanfeng picked up the teapot and drank water.
"Can Niubi still kill people and silence them?" the fat man curled his lips and said. After saying that, seeing Nan Feng frowning, he quickly changed his words, "I was talking about that Niubi outside, not you."
"It's not him I'm worried about." Nanfeng put down the teapot, took the fire in Fatty's hand, broke off the half that Fatty had not bitten, and returned the rest to Fatty.
The fat man took the remaining half and took a bite, "Why did the old man with a sad face say that the girl was not a normal person?"
"How did I know?" Nanfeng chewed on the fire.
"There are also wolf monsters." The fat man couldn't restrain his curiosity, "The old man is talking about the palace, the three people are talking about the generals, and the little kid's surname is Yuan, maybe she is the daughter of some prince. "
Nanfeng didn't answer. At this time, most of the military power was in the hands of the royal family. Many princes were generals leading troops. The fat man's inference was not unreasonable.
"Why do you think that Niubi called the old man a monster?" The fat man realized later.
Nanfeng didn't dare to tell Fatty that the old man was not a human being. If he had told Fatty, Fatty would be even more curious.
Even so, the fat man couldn't restrain his curiosity. He stuffed the remaining fire into his mouth, turned around and walked towards the door, "No, I have to go and listen."
Just as Nanfeng was about to say something to stop him, there was the sound of broken tables and chairs in the front hall, followed by several muffled groans.
When the fat man heard this, he looked back in shock, rolled his eyes and looked at Nanfeng. Nanfeng had really guessed it. The other party had really killed someone and silenced him. Fortunately, he didn't go out, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come back.
The two of them were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe. In the silence, they vaguely heard the old man in black say, "Yuanjun will leave it to the mage for now, we will..."
Ling Yunzi didn't answer, or he might have spoken but his voice was not loud enough for the two of them to hear.
Then there was the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground in the front hall, followed by the girl's cry, "Abo~"
After calling her uncle several times, the girl's voice became smaller and smaller. It was obvious that Ling Yunzi had taken her away from the inn.
"Let's go out and take a look." The fat man encouraged.
"Okay." Nanfeng agreed. He was not curious about what happened in the front hall, but was worried that everyone was dead and they would be involved in a life lawsuit.
The two of them tiptoed close to the front hall. When they opened the door, they fell to the floor. The old man in black was also lying upright in front of the counter.
"What to do?" The fat man looked at Nanfeng in fear. Fortunately, Nanfeng dragged him away earlier, otherwise he would be lying here now.
"Report to the official," Nanfeng said.
"Report to the official?" The fat man tilted his head and rolled his eyes.
"Yes, you go report to the official, and I'll run away." Nanfeng turned around and returned to his room.
"Can you please stop being sarcastic? I can't tell." The fat man pointed at the front hall. "Hey, wait, look at those two who are still alive and humming."
"Let's go quickly. If you die, you will be blamed. If you are stupid, you will be blamed." Nan Feng did not look back. There are many ways to silence someone, killing is one, and beating someone stupid is another.
The two hurriedly packed their bags, left the inn through the back door, and headed east under the moonlight.
The fat man kept muttering all the time, all he was saying was that he was having bad luck when carrying things. If he had not encountered such a thing, he would have fallen asleep on the hot kang by now. After saying this, I began to regret that I shouldn't have gone through the back door. I should have gone through the front door, and went to the kitchen to get some food and some wine. I wasn't full after dinner, and there was nothing to eat at this time.
Nanfeng wanted to think carefully about what happened before, but the fat man kept nagging him, which made him upset and restless.
After walking for more than ten miles, the two sat down by the roadside, found some branches, and lit a bonfire to keep out the cold.
"I don't think that Niubi is a very good person. Those three people made it clear that they were working with him. The old man committed the murder, but he actually didn't do anything." The fat man didn't say anything to silence him, because he was not sure whether those people were beaten to death or shot. Stupid.
"From the tone of those three people, they seem to be disciples of the palace. Although Ling Yunzi is also looking for Miss Yuan Er, he is not on the same page as those three people." Nanfeng said.
"I'm confused for no reason," the fat man said.
"It's nothing to be confused about. The matter is not complicated." Nanfeng sat down by the fire and held a branch to stir the fire. "When the old man in black handed the girl to Ling Yunzi, he said, 'Yuan Jun, for the time being. Leave it to the mage, this means that the girl is a god coming to earth. That black dress... '"
"Wait a minute, the second lady's surname is Yuan, what's wrong with the old man calling her Yuan Jun? Why do you say she is a deity descended from the earth?" The fat man interrupted Nan Feng.
"The girl's surname is Yuan, but she cannot be called Jun. Yuan Jun is a Taoist term that generally refers to female immortals." Nanfeng explained.
The fat man was taught and answered, "Oh, oh, go on."
"The old man in black walks with his toes on the ground. He can only walk like this if he is possessed by a ghost. Based on what he said before, it is not difficult to see that Miss Yuan Er is a female fairy coming to earth, and the old man is her body. Her friends or subordinates when she was an immortal came to save her when she was in danger," Nanfeng said.
"Fairies will lose their magic power when they come to earth?" The fat man was confused.
Nan Feng waved his hand and said, "You don't know something. Even the ascended immortals will not be able to escape once and for all. They will undergo heavenly tribulations every once in a while. If they succeed in overcoming the tribulation, they will live in the heaven. If they fail to overcome the tribulation, they will enter reincarnation again. . Then there is no doubt that Miss Yuan Er is a fairy who has come to the mortal world, but I don’t know whether she will be able to survive the catastrophe and re-enter reincarnation, or whether she will take the initiative to come to the mortal world and cultivate to a high position."
The fat man heard this for the first time. He was confused and curious, "How come fairies can bring their friends with them when they come to earth? Also, didn't you say that the old man is a ghost? How can ghosts protect fairies?"
"Except for a little inspiration in the heart of an immortal, everything else is no different from ordinary people. According to common sense, there should be no one to protect and help. But after Miss Yuan Er came to earth, someone was looking for her to harm her. This shows that she is different from ordinary immortals. Different." Nanfeng said.
After finishing speaking, seeing the fat man staring at him, he remembered that there was another question that he had not answered. He thought about it and said, "I only know that people possessed by ghosts walk on their toes, but I don't know whether people possessed by gods walk on their toes." He also walks on his toes, so the old man may not be a ghost, but an earthly immortal."
"Crack!" There was thunder in the sky.
"It's over. You leaked the secret and will be punished." The fat man stood up in fear and looked up.
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's going to rain. Find a place to take shelter quickly..."
