Chapter 121 Dragon Mother's Birthday Banquet

The other party's question was very abrupt, Qi Jingzhi didn't understand why, but still nodded and said: "I'm going out, so I naturally brought it."

"Brother Lu, please don't get me wrong, this little brother is not trying to seek your fortune!"

Qian Xiaoren smiled, kept walking, and couldn't stop talking: "Qian means that since Brother Lu is a mountain guest, he should have ancient coins that have been buried in the mountains for many years. The next few coins are old and of good quality, and the price is negotiable, so I won’t tell you to lose money!”

Qi Jingzhi became more and more surprised when he heard the words, and couldn't help but set his eyes on the string of copper coins hanging on the other party's waist.

Qian Xiaoren followed suit and looked down: "Hey! These few pieces are too shallow to be of much use, so they can only be used as accessories. However, your Linshan Mountain has been in good shape since ancient times, and there are countless tombs among them, so there must be some good ones. !"

"This person really regards me as the king of the mountain!"

Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but think of Chen Erlai while laughing secretly, felt that this topic was not very auspicious, so he just nodded perfunctorily, and said casually: "I have seen ancient coins in the mountains, most of them are rusty, difficult to spend, and can be used as money. What's the use?"

After finishing speaking, he looked away from the string of copper coins on Qian Xiaoren's waist, and turned to admire the scenery of Yunxianghou's mansion.

I saw the corridor in front of the two people with unfinished waists, high eaves and teeth, strange rocks and beautiful trees, exotic plants and flowers on the left and right, and the sound of music coming from nowhere in their ears.

Qian Xiaoren, who was at the side, had no intention of admiring the scenery, and shook his head and said, "Brother Lu, don't lie to me! This ancient coin was buried in the mountains, and was nourished by the energy of the dragon's veins. Over time, the smell of copper gradually faded, and a charm and even aura were born. Come, even ghosts and gods will covet it!"

When Qi Jingzhi heard the words, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but think of Wan'er: "The method of making silver is to arouse the smell of silver, but burying money in the mountains can get rid of the smell of copper, but it's just the opposite."

Seeing that he didn't speak, Qian Xiaoren became more and more anxious, turned his head to look around, and said in a low voice: "Brother Lu, don't you think I don't know? Linshan made a private sale of gods more than a hundred years ago. The scandal of covering up the cult, it is said that hundreds of thousands of money was involved in buying mountains! Because of this big case, the entire Linshan gods were almost uprooted!"

As soon as these words came out, even though Qi Jingzhi's face was covered by a spirit mask, he couldn't help showing shock, and his thoughts changed sharply: "As far as I know, the two branches of Lin Mountain, Xiaosong Mountain and Yu Mountain, are both There is no mountain god, and the king of the country seems to have no intention of granting it any more, and secretly supports the city god to erode the power of the mountain god. I was surprised before that there are no mountain gods everywhere on the edge of the huge Linshan Mountain, but I didn't expect such a hidden secret in it!"

"Leaving aside the private sale of gods, is it possible that this shielding cult refers to the temple in the depths of Xiaosong Mountain? Even... more than that one! After all, although there are signs of fighting in the temple on Xiaosong Mountain, it is only damaged. A bronze tripod was built, and the core hall and statues are all intact, it doesn't look like it was besieged by the court, maybe it was a fish that slipped through the net."

Speaking of it, whether it is the city god line of Songling County where Master Meng is, the former mountain god line of Xiaosong Mountain where Senior Mandrill is, or the temple in the depths of Xiaosong Mountain where the tiger spirit sheds its skin, Qi Jingzhi started his practice. , On the contrary, I have more contact with Shinto, and I usually pay more attention to it.

Although Qian Xiaoren talked about the big Shinto case, although it was a long time ago, it was closely related to Xiaosong Mountain. He couldn't help but pay attention to it, and his thoughts inevitably diverged for a while, and he also had a deeper understanding of the ups and downs of Daqi Shinto.

"When Jiao Yulang mentioned that Jiang Jun's son-in-law, he said that he once raised troops to attack Wu Shan because his sister was abused by her husband. It seems that it happened more than [-] years ago. Shrinking the egg and holding back, I am afraid that it is not only because of my own mistakes, but also because I was frightened by the tragic situation of the Linshan gods... Now the situation of the mountain gods declining and the water gods domineering, I am afraid that this is how they came out step by step."

Seeing that Qi Jingzhi was out of his mind, Qian Xiaoren's face was a little smug: "Brother Lu, did you remember? My little brother also heard that after the incident happened that year, the hundreds of thousands of mountain money suddenly disappeared on the eve of escorting the capital. Whereabouts are unknown..."

"Master Qian was joking!"

Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but cast a glance at this cheeky, outspoken fellow with his eye sockets, and said angrily: "Don't say it's the first time I've heard about this old case, I don't know if it's true or not. Even if it's true, The whereabouts of the mountain money you mentioned is also really unknown, but how can I get involved in this? Lu can see that, since Master Qian just entered the door, he has made up his mind to make fun of me!"

"Hey! Brother Lu, what are you talking about? Mr. Qian is not an idiot, the water here is very deep, how dare I wade in?"

Qian Xiaoren resigned: "Let's just say it straight! Earlier I heard the roll call in front of the mansion, saying that Brother Lu came from Linshan. At first, I didn't believe it. It's over, and the essence of the mountain has been scoured, so that no extravagant figures have appeared in a hundred years, even if there are still some remnants of evil lingering in the mountain, there is absolutely no reason to come out and hang around under the name of Linshan guest."

"But little brother just made a tentative statement, and seeing Brother Lu's reaction, you know that you are clearly aware of the inside story of Linshan. I think Linshan has finally regained some vitality after these years of recuperation, and only then did Brother Lu become such a character!"

"Actually, according to my humble opinion, the case has passed for so many years, and the time has passed. Brother Lu really doesn't need to have any scruples. The one in Daishan made such a big commotion a few days ago, isn't he still alive and kicking now? "

Qian Xiaoren's mouth opened and closed, and a series of non-stop words pierced his head like a magic voice, making Qi Jingzhi behind the mask frown again and again.

He had to turn his head sideways and keep his ears away from the other party, but he was secretly vigilant in his heart: "After I put on the spirit mask, I thought I had a cover, but I didn't pay much attention to restraining my words and deeds. , and was spotted by Qian Xiaoren."

"As for the one in Dai Shanli he mentioned, it should be the three-eyed stone puppet that once belonged to Dai Shan's Changqing Temple. This one seems to have caused a lot of trouble, even Chaozhou. I've heard that, but I don't know if it's a stunned young man who is arrogant when he succeeds, or there are schemes and schemes from the mountain gods behind him."

Qi Jingzhi shook his head, restrained his thoughts, and at the same time used his arms to shake off Qian Xiaoren's palm: "Hmph, I see that you are a kind-hearted and treacherous fellow, we'd better stay away!"

"Hey, Brother Lu, don't worry, it's not enough for my younger brother to make amends to you!" Qian Xiaoren was disgusted, but he didn't care, and still posted it shamelessly.

He looked at Qi Jingzhi helplessly, and continued to babble, "Brother Lu, I don't ask the details of your origin as a Linshan guest! Whether you want to be a Linshan god, or just want to be a Whether it is the king of the mountain or borrowing the land of Linshan to cultivate, my younger brother is not interested in knowing, but there is only one thing to ask for!"

At this time, Qi Jingzhi could see that Qian Xiaoren's temperament was tired and lazy, which was even worse than that of Jiao Yulang.

Reluctantly, he stopped and asked in a muffled voice, "What's the matter?"

Qian Xiaoren's face was overjoyed immediately, and his big eyes almost burst into light: "Little brother is thinking, no matter where the mountain money went at the beginning, it must have been transferred in a hurry, maybe there are three or five pieces left behind. In the crevice of a certain rock in Linshan. If Brother Lu is lucky one day and happens to pick it up, you have to think about me, little brother!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone in front of him sneered suddenly: "Qian Xiaoren, are you dreaming of your dreams again? Don't be fooled by him. What this guy really wants is not just a few ancient coins. money!"

The latter sentence was obviously meant by Qi Jingzhi, and it was exactly what he wanted.From Qi Jingzhi's point of view, Qian Xiaoren is very cunning, and he must not believe everything he says. How could it be possible that he just broke up with him so much for a few so-called mountain coins?
Qian Xiaoren's complexion changed suddenly, he turned his head to look at the source of the voice, and said angrily, "Xin Changji! You are really haunted, you will follow Master Jiu wherever he goes!"

"Joke! This is Jiao's Mansion, not Qian's Mansion! You can get Qian Jiu, but Captain Ben can't come?"

At the sound of the voice, a person walked out from behind a jagged rock by the side of the road ahead.

This person is wearing a royal blue brocade robe, a black leather armor on the outside, shoulder armor and gauntlets that look like rotten silver, and a silver heart mirror with a lion biting a sword inlaid on his chest. Helmets and weapons are carried, as if they are about to go to the battlefield.

Most of Qi Jingzhi's gaze was attracted by the pattern on the breastplate. The ferocious lion's head was lifelike, and a dagger without scabbard was biting in his mouth with the hilt on the right and the tip of the sword facing left.

Immediately he noticed that there was a dark iron wrench on the thumb of this person's right hand.

A soldier named Xin Changji walked up to the two of them, his eyes were as cold as lightning, and he gave Qian Xiaoren a hard look: "In front of me, if you dare to call yourself the Nine Lord again, don't blame me for cutting off your tongue! "

Qian Xiaoren also seemed to know that he had made a mistake, and his momentum weakened immediately, but his mouth still refused to give in: "Hey! Isn't this Captain Xin? I haven't seen you for a few days, and you cast the pattern of a lion biting a sword on your heart Was it on the mirror? Why, it’s because I’m afraid that everyone won’t know that you are so good at errands, that you were promoted to the evil-dispelling captain of our Chaozhou Town Demon Academy, and became the No.1 under the Demon-Suppressing General?”

"Hey! Lieutenant Xin came to the door in this outfit today, I know... I thought you were celebrating your birthday, I didn't know... I thought you were here to arrest someone!"

Xin Changji's face didn't change at all when he heard this, and his eyebrows were still cold and cold: "Don't be so eccentric with me, you are a person who is about to enter the country and serve in the country, and if you don't have a straight face and make friends with people indiscriminately, Are you really not afraid of bringing disaster to your family?"

Qian Xiaoren suddenly looked disdainful, shook his head and said: "Brother Xin, I, Qian Jiuai, can make friends with whoever I love, and you don't care! Today is different, our two old men have already broken up, think about it again." You came to my door to sue me for being tricky, and there was no door!"

Hearing this, Xin Changji couldn't help snorting coldly, then turned to look at Qi Jingzhi, his eyes unscrupulously swept across his blue skin and the red gold knife at his waist, his expression froze slightly, he nodded and said: "How dare you call yourself Lin Shanke, you really have three points!"

He commented in a cold tone, and suddenly cupped his fists at Qi Jingyi, and said solemnly: "My official, Xin Changji, is the captain of the evil spirit under the command of Chaozhou Zhenmo General! This place is Jiaofu, and you are a guest from afar. It's not for Xin to speak up this round, it's just because of my duty, I have to say a few words to you."

Qi Jingzhi knew beforehand that the Zhenmo Institute set up a Zhenmo General in the state and a Zhenmo Captain in the county.Listening to Qian Xiaoren's voice, Xin Changji, the so-called Evil Resisting Captain, seemed to be directly under General Zhenmo, and ranked above all other Captains.

This person sat on such a high position at such a young age, but even the young meritorious officer from Huaide County in Linzhou was inferior to him.Previously, Liu Mu's thoughts were not clear, and he was hesitant to move forward at the level of the sensory environment of Fanxia, ​​and Xin Changji was on top of it, at least it must be the manifestation of his mind, and it is not known that he has even entered the third level.

Qi Jingzhi's heart was awe-inspiring, and he didn't care about the impoliteness in the other party's words. He also clasped his fists and saluted: "Lieutenant Xin Du, please speak frankly, Lu Qiyun is all ears!"

Xin Changji put his hands down by his sides, with a dignified expression on his face, but there was an undisguised disdain in his tone: "Lieutenant Ben Du just said that you do have three points of ability, but only three points, and the remaining seven points will be It's all crazy!"

"If you're not afraid that the wind will flash your tongue and go in and sit in the mountain guest seat, just call yourself a Linshan guest with those monsters and ghosts. I don't care about anything else, no matter who dares to quarrel and disturb the birthday banquet, or drink a few cups of horse urine. The truth is revealed, I want to shake the monster's prestige on the heads of the guests in the Mansion and the people of the whole city, and show the two-handed murderous methods, after the incident, the captain will never let him leave Chaozhou alive!"

At the end of Xin Changji's speech, the divine light in his eyes was shining brightly, and his arrogance was so strong that it was impossible to look at him.

Qi Jingzhi was swept away by his eyes, and he felt that the other party was as majestic as a mountain, and seemed like a giant who picked up the stars and took the moon, wrapped in the general trend of the world to overthrow and oppress him.

The peaks and peaks of Cannian in the spirit mask bear the brunt of the attack, and immediately shake together. The Yin Feng that originally wandered among the mountains seems to have encountered a natural enemy, and they all hide behind the mountains.

Some of these mountain peaks had collided violently with Qiu Yu Cannian, and they were already broken, twisted, and crumbling, and they couldn't hold on immediately. First, they collapsed and collapsed, and then disintegrated into countless gravels and powders.

Without waiting for the rest of the mountains to rob them, these gravels, powders, and even some unavoidable winds were suddenly pressed by some invisible force, and either disappeared invisible, or were directly squeezed out of this small world. .

In the eyes of Xin Changji and Qian Xiaoren, it was Qi Jingzhi's cyan faceless monster, with black or gray, foul-smelling fine residues constantly appearing on the face, and at the same time, there was a slight sinister wind full of hatred.

The dross and the dark wind immediately disintegrated when exposed to sunlight.

Visible to the naked eye, the faceless man's blue face gradually faded, and turned light blue after a while, and his aura rose accordingly, firmly resisting Xin Changji's pressure.

Until now, Qi Jingzhi struggled to open his mouth, and his breathing was still somewhat difficult: "The courtyard has been deserted for a long time, and I would like to thank Lieutenant Xin Du for sweeping it on his behalf!"

Hearing this, Xin Changji's expression turned ugly, and Qian Xiaoren even laughed out loud on the spot.

"Hmph! Xin is not your servant!"

Xin Changji snorted lightly, the divine light in his eyes disappeared, and the invisible arrogance surrounding him also died down.

He glared at Qi Jing fiercely, but his tone softened for the first time: "I don't think you are a hopeless person. If you uphold the righteous way and practice well in the future, no matter whether it is the Mangmang Linshan or the Shengjiang Tianxia , I might not have a place for you!"
