I'm looking for longevity in Liaozhai

Chapter 42 Two-winged Centipede
"You're slandering the City God!" A guard couldn't help but reprimanded after hearing Ru Yun's words.

After these days, most of the people in their yamen have become the devout followers of the City God.

Now they heard that someone said that the city god gave her the means to kill people, and let her do harm, so they were naturally angry.

Listening to Ru Yun's words, Wang Zhe fell into deep thought.

"But what if what she said is true? Is it really the city god entrusting the dream?"

"I was wrong, I was wrong, please forgive me, please forgive me!"

Ru Yun suddenly knelt down on the ground, kowtowed non-stop, with a frightened expression on his face.

A moment later, her body trembled suddenly, and she fell to the ground with a bang, bleeding from her mouth and nose, and she died.

The moment Ru Yun fell to the ground and died, Wang Zhe saw a wisp of black air wafting from her body, and soon disappeared.

"It's a spell!"

This?
Everyone present was stunned.

"It must have been punished for slandering the City God. Didn't you see her kowtowing before she died, begging the City God for forgiveness?"

"You want to ask the City God for forgiveness after killing someone?"

"It's a pity, she looks so beautiful!"

"Hurry up and collect the corpse?"

Because of Ru Yun's death, and her confession before she died, the case of the murder of the two in Chunxiaolou will be solved.
And the oiran, Ms. Gu, was also released, and Chun Xiao Building was open for business, and this matter seemed to be over.

After dinner and tea in Guobei County, there is another story that can gossip.

Everyone was shocked when they learned that the murderer was the previous oiran.

People were even more surprised when they heard that she kowtowed to beg the city god for forgiveness and then died suddenly.

"This is the apparition of the City God!"

"It deserves it, who told her to slander the City God."

After this incident, people are even more in awe of the City God.

But Wang Zhe knew that things were far from that simple, and there were still some things that could not be explained.

He felt that Ru Yun was being used and was just a pawn that could be discarded at any time.

A girl in a brothel, she died as soon as she died, with no relatives or reasons, who would care, and no one would even shed a tear for her.

In the yard, the casserole was steaming, exuding a strong meaty aroma.The puppy wagged its tail.

Wang Zhe added a piece of firewood to the fire and looked up at the sky.

It was still gray, as if there was a layer of dust floating, and even the heavy rain in the past few days hadn't washed away half of it.

"Laifu, the current Guobei County is like a quagmire, a quagmire that eats people, and everyone here may be swallowed." Wang Zhe said softly.

The puppy on the side stared straight at the steaming casserole that smelled like meat.

"Do you think I should go out to avoid the limelight?"

Wang, the puppy barked and licked his tongue.

"The cultivation base is still too low. If you can cut across the world with a single sword like that person, why should you care about these things?"

Wang Zhe thought of the stunningly talented figure in the dream, which made people yearn for it.

"I have to improve my cultivation level as soon as possible, and I still have a green dragon's inner alchemy, so I have to find a way to refine it. But in Guobei County, who would know how to refine a flood dragon's inner alchemy?"

The next day, Wang Zhe was still working, and a middle-aged man came to thank him.This man was the father of the child who was dragged away by wild animals in the mountains during the heavy rain that day.

"Is the child better?"

"It's much better. I went to the Town God's Temple to ask for talisman water." The man said, "It's a little bit of respect."

What the other party brought out surprised Wang Zhe. It was actually a jade pendant, and it looked like suet jade. It was of extraordinary quality and should be expensive.

A villager actually found such a rare thing.

"This thing is too precious, I can't have it."

"Just accept it, I picked it up from the mountain." The man said.

"Picked it up?" Wang Zhe was taken aback when he heard the words, he thought the jade pendant was a man's family heirloom.

"Ah, after the mountain torrent, we picked it up when we cleaned up the fields that were washed away by the flood, and someone saw the gold ingot!" The middle-aged man envied.

In his opinion, these jade pendants are far less useful than gold and silver.

torrents?Could it be that there are ancient tombs in that mountain, which were washed out when there was a flood?

"Some people also said that they saw colorful rays of light in the mountains!"

"Colorful glow?"

After hearing this, Wang Zhe decided to follow the man to his village.

The multicolored rays of light, this is a spectacle that can only be seen when a legendary treasure appears.

When we arrived at the mountain village, the roads were still full of mud. People were busy clearing the fields and repairing the houses that had been washed away by the heavy rain.

Wang Zhe went to see the child who was dragged away by the wild beast with a snack. He recovered very well.

Then Wang Zhe went into the mountain and headed towards the place where the villagers saw the glow.

"Catcher, you have to be careful, there are man-eating beasts in this deep mountain and old forest!"

The man was worried that he was alone and insisted on going with him, but Wang Zhe declined.

If he encounters any accident by himself, it is easy to leave, but it will be troublesome if he brings someone with him.

Because of the flash flood that broke out not long ago, the mountain is still very muddy.

Wang Zhe didn't touch the ground, stepping on the trees and flying across the sky.

At the same time, he used the "Looking Qi Technique" to look for the colorful rays of light seen by the people in the mountain.

After a while, he found a tomb in a deep mountain. Because of the mountain torrent, the tomb was washed away. The jewelry that the villagers saw probably originated from this tomb.

Wang Zhe stood outside and looked into the ancient tomb, suddenly there were two red lights inside, buzzing, and there was a faint sound of flapping wings.

"What?" Wang Zhe was taken aback.

Wang Zhe took out a talisman from his body and held it in his hand.

go,
A ball of flame flew out of his hand and sank into the corridor of the tomb.

This is the flexible use of "fire talisman".It can be thrown out at once, or it can be divided into multiple uses in the hand.

The flames flew into the tomb passage, and Wang Zhe froze for a moment.

"That's it, centipede?!"

A centipede more than three feet long, the whole body of the centipede is black, with a pair of wings growing on its back.

"Could it be the flying centipede in the legend? With such a different species, this tomb is really not simple, let's go in and have a look."

Wang Zhe held the knife in one hand and the "fire talisman" in the other.

Two balls of fire flew out one after another, the flying centipede seemed to be afraid of fire, and disappeared in a whizzing after seeing the light of fire.

Wang Zhe entered the tomb passage cautiously. The door of the main tomb had been toppled. When he entered, there was a wooden coffin in the middle.

Surrounded by some treasures, there are gold, silver, jewelry, scriptures, calligraphy and painting scrolls. The ones that were washed away are the burial chambers outside. This place has not been flooded and is well preserved.

Hum, suddenly a black streak flew over, like a glimpse, extremely fast.

I have been waiting for you for a long time!

streamer sword,
There was a flash of light, and there was a clang, and it felt like the knife had been cut on steel.

"so hard!"
