I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 224 Rat Fairy Willow Fairy
A few sticks of incense burned to the end, and the cigarette smoke curled up.

Most of them were ordered by these Jianghu people.

"Everyone, you're welcome."

Seeing several Jianghu people staring at him and others, with different expressions in their eyes, Song You also bowed to them.

The swordsman also clasped his fists beside him.

"I'm coming from Changjing and I'm going to the north. I passed by here, and I don't know much about the local situation. The old man who passed by kindly told us that we can't spend the night outside, so I can only disturb a few gods. If you disturb a few If you are a hero, please forgive me a lot."

Hearing this, several Jianghu people breathed a sigh of relief.

An older man looked around, then raised his hand and arched at him: "It's all Lei Gong and Liu Xian's territory, and I'm just staying here, since we are both degenerates, we can avoid it here." There is no need to talk about any disturbance, but it is also a fate."

"What you said makes sense."

Hearing that he spoke carefully, Song You was quite chivalrous in his conversation, and just wanted to ask them about the situation in Lanmo County, so he said:

"My surname is Song Mingyou. I was originally from Lingquan County, Yizhou. I don't know your surname?"

"The suffering of the rivers and lakes, haha, there is no such thing as a surname, and it is called Jiang Erfu." The Jianghu man paused, "We are escorts. We came from Linxun County in the north, and now we have to go back."

"I didn't intend to come here, and I didn't prepare joss sticks. I don't know how many of you there are. I'd like to buy a few."

"Unfortunately, we only brought six incense sticks, three when we came and three when we returned." Jiang Erfu said to them, and glanced at the stage, "The last three are here too."

"Then I have to say sorry to the gods."

Song You glanced at the statue of Zhou Leigong in the center of the platform, feeling weird.

When he was at the foot of Yunding Mountain and near the small fishing village by Jingdao Lake, Zhou Leigong told him that he would see him next time and that he would offer him a piece of incense.Although Song You didn't agree at the time, he kept in mind that he borrowed someone's temple to shelter from the wind and rain tonight, so he should actually buy one.

"rest assured!"

Jiang Erfu saw the look on his eyebrows, felt that although the young Taoist was accompanied by a swordsman, he was not a bad person, and he was polite and polite, so he said to him: "The two Lei Gongs are upright, and Liu Xian also has people in his heart, but he did it unintentionally. However, I won’t be unhappy because you forgot to bring the incense.”

"That's good……"

At this time, the swordsman had already put down the quilt bag and took out the dry food.

It is a dry biscuit bought in Zhijiang County.

It's not made of fine flour, it's very rough, I don't know what is added, it's baked hard, and it tastes full of scum, both mouth and throat, but it's easy to carry and it's very hungry.

I heard that people who travel around here buy this as dry food. Song You was curious and bought some.

"How many have eaten tonight? Do you want a pad?"

"Thank you, I've eaten."

"When I was waiting in Zhijiang County, I heard that there was a rat monster in Lanmo County. I was walking on the road and listened to the advice of the old man on the side of the road not to spend the night in the wilderness, but I didn't know how rampant the rat monster was." Song You paused for a while, then looked back at the platform, "I have also practiced in the Taoist temple since I was a child. I know these two Lei Gongs, but I don't know which god this Liuxian is?"

"Sir, is he really a Taoist priest?"

"There is an ultimatum as proof."

"Forgive me, sir, there are too many people who walk the rivers and lakes and wear Taoist robes. I can't tell whether it is true or not."

Jiang Erfu cupped his hands again as he spoke, and then said to him: "Since you know who is causing the chaos in Lanmo County, the villain will not say more. But you must remember, after leaving this temple, But don’t casually talk about the rat demon, even if you want to call it, you have to call it the mouse fairy, so as not to suffer disaster.”

"Will you be heard even if you say a word?"

"The less trouble, the better."

"That's true."

"Sir, you must have seen a lot of rat snakes along the way, right?"

"Perhaps it was caused by the cats at home. I only heard some movement in the grass in the fields, but I rarely saw rat snakes." Song You said with a smile, "But in front of the temple, I saw the snake's tail."

"That's it."

Jiang Erfu leaned his back against the wall, warmed himself by the fire and said: "The one who makes trouble is the Rat Fairy, and the one who keeps the peace is naturally the Snake Fairy. We respectfully call him Empress Liuxian, and some people call her Empress Jinhua."

"Mistress Jinhua..."

Song You looked down at his cat.

The three-flowered cat also raised its head.

"Exactly!"

"I don't know when this mouse fairy started to make trouble?"

"In the past few years, there have been wars in the north, and many people have died. Some people say that the rats ate too much human flesh and became spirits. Some people say that the mouse fairy came from the north. How can we tell the truth from the fake?"

"What about Liuxian?"

"Sir, why do you ask so clearly?" Jiang Erfu turned his head and stared at him, "As long as you pass through Lanmo County, don't spend the night outside, either live in the city, or in the village, or in the temple, I think you all After riding a horse, I will walk faster tomorrow morning, and I will go out in a day, as long as I don’t talk about the mouse fairy during the day, keep an eye on your cat, and don’t catch the mice in the field to eat, then I’ll be fine.”

"I'm a cultivator, so I naturally care about ghosts and gods." Song You said, "This trip around the world is precisely to see these things."

"..."

Jiang Erfu was puzzled, but he didn't ask any more questions. The nights and evenings were boring, and it wasn't a bad thing for a Taoist priest to speak, so he said it.

"Mistress Liuxian is too early. People in Lanmo County have believed in Mistress Liuxian for at least hundreds of years. Mistress Liuxian has always protected the food here from being disturbed by rats and insects. This is the temple. I’m afraid it has been cultivated for decades.” Jiang Erfu said, “Miss Liuxian’s incense has always been very strong, but now, with the rat fairy making trouble, the incense of Liuxian Empress is even more prosperous.”

"I see."

Song You nodded.

Looking back at the statue of Liu Xian who was almost in the center of the altar with Zhou Leigong, he almost understood.

Hezhou was originally a place of grain production. Many years ago, people believed in the snake fairy to protect the fields and rice warehouses at home from rats. It is similar to the belief in the Sanhua Empress that people on Jinyang Road used to believe.

Seeing that this Liuxian was in the same temple as Zhou Leigong, and almost in the middle, one could know that she should be a deity who had received imperial consecration, not a wild god like Empress Sanhua.Based on this, we can also see her status in the hearts of the local people, and she is a very respected local god.

"In the past few years, although the mouse fairy has been rampant, the willow fairy is also very powerful." Jiang Erfu quietly glanced at the statue of the willow fairy on the altar as he spoke. Obviously, in Liuxian's temple, in front of Liuxian, he I was afraid that I would provoke the gods to blame me by talking about the willow fairy, so I mostly picked good things to say, "Although we are not from Lanmo County, we have heard a lot. It's not that there is Liu Xian to contend with, bless everyone, I am afraid that the whole Lanmo will be eaten up by mice."

"I'm also curious in my heart." Song You asked them, "The rat demon here is so powerful, why are there still people working in the fields, living in the village, and walking on the road?"

"It all depends on Liuxian."

"Appreciate further details."

"The people here, as long as they put the tablet of the willow fairy at home, they will naturally be free from the plague of rats. If the snake fairy is invited to the field, the whole place will be safe from disasters. Just don't be stupid and kill the rats."

"What if you don't offer it?"

"It's okay if you don't confess. It's the same if the neighbors confess. It's just that they protect you, so why don't you confess?"

"That's true."

"As for what you said, why do people still come and go on the road?" Jiang Erfu smiled, "Although this rat demon is rampant, but in broad daylight, the world is open, how dare he come out to make trouble? Those of us who walk the rivers and lakes are also familiar with the road rules. Calculate the distance, either live in the city, or live in a temple by the side of the road, no matter if it is for Lei Gong or the temple for Liu Xian, as long as you live in the temple, no matter how rampant the rat fairy is, he will not dare to offend Yes. If you don’t stay in the temple, it depends on your luck, sometimes a cow gets lost, and if you look at it the next day, you can eat it clean.”

"How many people left?"

"A lot, but not many. How can it be so easy to find a way to survive when you leave your hometown?"

"I see."

The people of this land have a resilience beyond imagination.

The nation has lasted for thousands of years, and it is not without credit for this resilience.

The two sides chatted for a short time, but Song You asked very carefully, and almost knew everything they wanted to know.

The fires lit by the Jianghu people are getting darker and darker.

There were occasional rustling sounds outside, which attracted the three-colored cat in Taoist's arms to stretch its neck and look out.

"Sir, why do you bring a cat with you when you travel around the world?"

"We are destined, so we go together."

"..." Jiang Erfu shook his head and reminded in a low voice, "Then sir, you have to take care of your cat. In Lanmo County, no matter whether rats or snakes, you are not allowed to catch and eat them randomly. After eating rats and voles It will attract the Rat Fairy to take revenge and eat the snake, hehe, Empress Liu Xian will not blame her, but if the local people know about it, she will not let you off lightly."

"Meow..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Song You said, "My cat said she knew it too, and she doesn't know how to eat snakes."

"Ha ha……"

Jiang Erfu smiled and stopped talking.

This group of bodyguards was on the right side of the entrance to the temple. They were either sitting on the ground against the wall or laying down in disorder. They seemed to have a good relationship. Some even used the legs of their companions as pillows and covered their bodies with thick cloth as quilts.The friendship of people at the bottom is really different from that of literati. There are not so many romantic poems, flowers, snow, moon, plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, wine and tea.

The fire was slowly extinguished, leaving only the red firewood.

The swordsman lowered his voice and asked softly:

"Sir, do you want to get rid of the rat demon?"

"There is chaos in the north, there are many monsters, Tiangong is too busy for a while, since it is coming down, let's start with the rat monster."

"Shu is willing to go on the saddle and follow Mr. to slay demons and demons!"

The swordsman clasped his fists together, afraid of disturbing the person opposite, lowered his voice very low, but his tone was very firm.

"It's time to work."

Song You was also covered with a thin blanket, and slowly closed his eyes.

In the middle of the night there was a rustling sound. It was a young man among the group of bodyguards. He must have seen that Song You and his party were carrying horses, and the wool felts and blankets Song You used were also high-quality goods. He thought it was a rich man. , so he crept up to the two of them and the cat, but the swordsman was alert, and only tapped the floor tiles with his scabbard, and then scared him back.For the next night, except for Mistress Sanhua who often went in and out, there was almost nothing going on.
