Chapter 419

Tomorrow, the two of them left the city and walked directly towards the small fishing village around the big river.

The villagers here have always made a living from fishing in this big river, which has become their main source of income.

But now not only can they not get out of the river to fish, but even crossing the river and getting close to the river has become a problem.

The two left the city and rushed directly to the small fishing village.

It can be said that this small fishing village has always been in a state of panic, and life is very uneasy.

Guarding such a cannibal river, who can live happily.

When the two entered the village, even the air was filled with a palpitating smell.

"It's so dark." Gong Yan said in surprise.

"Let's go, ask someone first." Tomorrow said, and walked out first. There are many thatched houses around, and many dried fish are hanging in front of the houses, but some houses are already empty. I don't want to leave this river, but I have to leave in the face of such great pressure.

"Hey, Brother Ming, the house in front is still smoking, and someone is cooking." Gong Yan said.

Tomorrow nodded, hurried to the thatched hut in two steps, knocked lightly on the door and said, "Is anyone there?"

"Yes, someone." An elderly voice came from the room, and then the door opened, and an old man came out.

"You guys, why did you come to this village?" the old man asked suspiciously.

"We are the law."

"I'm here for fun." Tomorrow interrupted Gong Yan's words and said with a smile.

"Come to play?" the old man murmured suspiciously, not understanding what they meant. The river demon incident that has been raging during this period has already caused many people in the village to leave, so how could anyone still come.

"Why did you come here? Let's go quickly." The old man asked suspiciously.

Tomorrow asked with a little doubt: "Why do you say that?"

"Are you from other places?" the old man asked suspiciously.

"That's right, we are indeed from other places." Tomorrow said with a smile.

"Oh, young man, hurry up and leave, it's too dangerous here now, the river outside the village is a cannibal river, you hurry up and leave." The old man said hastily.

"Cannibal River? Why is it called Cannibal River?" Asked tomorrow, feeling that he could get some useful information from the old man.

"You don't know, this river is very dangerous. People on the bank or on the boat will be pulled into the river and eaten. It's scary." The old man said.

Tomorrow pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Why did this happen? Could it be that no one came? No one cares?"

"I found a few mages in the town, but they all fed the monsters in the river. I heard that a few more mages have come in the past two days. I guess it's useless!" the old man said helplessly.

"Since this kind of thing happened here, yes, but why didn't you move away?" asked tomorrow.

"Most of the young people in the village have moved away, and the only ones left are us old men who don't want to leave." The old man sighed.

Tomorrow also understands in his heart that the people of the older generation have lived by the river for decades, and this is their home. Even if they die here, they will not be willing to leave.

Moreover, they are old, even if they leave here, they don't have a few years to live, so they might as well die at home.

"By the way, didn't you say that there are people coming again? Where are those mages?" Asked tomorrow.

"It's true that someone came to ask again, now we should go to the river to see it." The old man said.

"By the way, when was the first time this kind of thing happened in this big river?" Asked tomorrow.

"Last month, last month, this kind of thing happened. In this way, there are more than a dozen people who died in this big river." The old man said.

"Then, how about this, let's go to the river to have a look first." Tomorrow said.

The old man hurriedly shook his head, pulled tomorrow's arm and said, "Wait, you must not go there, the river is too dangerous."

Tomorrow smiled and said, "I'm also a magician who exorcises demons."

Suddenly, tomorrow frowned, looked at the old man's room and asked, "By the way, old man, you must have slept very uncomfortable these few nights, right?"

The old man's eyes suddenly became bright and he asked: "Yeah, yeah, I've been having nightmares these days, and I don't know what to do when I wake up, and I can't sleep all night."

Frowning tightly tomorrow, he nodded and said, "Let's go first, let's go to the river to have a look."

The old man nodded, and then said: "Be careful."

Tomorrow, after leading Gong Yan to bid farewell to the old man, he walked directly into the distance.

"Brother Ming, did you just tell me what happened to that old man's house?" Gong Yan asked.

Tomorrow smiled and said: "I didn't feel it before, and it was only later that I realized that it was not enough for his room to be located in a place of gossip, and the yin energy was too heavy, which would attract the evil energy in the river here, but it is not that important. , I will draw a Ding An Talisman for him at night."

Gong Yan nodded, his eyes were full of admiration, there was nothing wrong with following tomorrow.

From a distance, the two saw two other mages walking around by the river.

"Presumably they are one of the exorcist spiritual masters." Tomorrow said.

"Brother Ming, let's go and have a look."

"Walk."

The two nodded and walked straight over.

You can see it clearly after getting close, one of them looks like a mage, but he doesn't seem to have any morals, and the other looks very young, and he looks like he may be his son.

Both of them are wearing Taoist robes, but they don't look like people who have obtained Taoism.

"Who are you?" The mage stepped forward and shouted.

Gong Yan stepped forward and said: "We are also mages who revealed the list, and we are here to exorcise evil spirits."

Hearing this, the man showed a disdainful smile and said, "You? Are you the only ones who can exorcise evil spirits?"

Gong Yan nodded and said, "How, what's your problem?"

"No problem, it's just that not everyone can earn this money." The man said coldly.

Tomorrow shook his head helplessly, originally he planned to meet for a while, after all, there will be an exorcism together afterwards, it looks a bit precarious.

"Okay, Xiao Gong, let's go to another place to see." Ming Ri said.

Gong Yan had a look of reluctance on his face, but he opened his mouth tomorrow, so he nodded and left with tomorrow.

To say anything else, Gong Yan is also a spiritual master after all, even if his strength is relatively low, he is still an orthodox spiritual master. He follows tomorrow and obeys tomorrow's words because tomorrow's strength is higher than his own and is profound. If you are a mountain Taoist priest, that is not necessarily the case. I really don't know how to write the word "dead" if you dare to come here with this kind of strength.

So when facing these people, the arrogance in Gong Yan's heart is naturally revealed.

"Brother Ming, why did you stop me? Why didn't you let me teach that Taoist priest a lesson?" Gong Yan muttered.

Tomorrow helplessly spread his hands and said, "I'm also a wild Taoist."

"Brother Ming, you are about the same as them, you are much better than them, that, that, forget it, let's go, let's take a closer look, by the way, Brother Ming, they all said that getting close to this big river will kill those ghosts in the river Was it attracted?" Gong Yan asked looking at the river in front of him.

Tomorrow shook his head and said: "That's not the case. As long as we have a little spiritual energy in our bodies, these innocent souls will not haunt themselves. Moreover, during the day, when the strength of these innocent souls is the weakest, naturally they will not Dare to come and go."

"Then, Brother Ming, how sure are you about this time?" Gong Yan asked.

"If it's just these innocent souls, don't worry about it. I'm afraid there are other plots hidden behind these innocent souls." Ming Ri said.

"Let's go!" Tomorrow said, he turned and left.

"Why go?" Miyako asked hastily.

"Of course, let's solve the old man's housing problem first. By the way, Xiaogong, can you help me find Langhao pens, cinnabar and other things?" asked tomorrow.

"Why do you want those things? Is it still a talisman? Didn't you use the blood of a black dog last time?" Gong Yan asked suspiciously.

"It's different. Last time it was to exorcise demons. It was faster to use black dog blood. This time it is a town house. There is no need to use blood. Cinnabar will do." Mingri said.

Immediately afterwards, the big rooster that Xiao Gong was carrying suddenly said, "Here, there is a familiar aura."

"Familiar breath?" Tomorrow asked suspiciously.

"Don't doubt me, I'm a fox, my sense of smell is much stronger than you humans."

Tomorrow smiled awkwardly and said, "Who is it?"

"I don't know, I didn't pay attention to it before, so I don't know whose smell it is." The fox said.

"Let's go, Xiaogong, let's go and see where there are Langhao pens and cinnabar."

Chapter 10

After speaking, the two returned directly to the city, and first went to the sundry market.

"Brother Ming, do you have to have a Langhao pen?" Gong Yan asked suspiciously.

"Of course it's best to get a Langhao pen. If there is no other way, it doesn't matter. I can only work hard on cinnabar and yellow paper. By the way, how much money do you have in hand, Xiaogong?" Monkey King asked.

Gong Yan smiled, patted the purse on his waist and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's enough."

Tomorrow laughed a few times, and didn't say much. Only he can know if it's possible. After all, this kind of grocery market is like an antique city.

After the two of them inquired, they went directly to the grocery street, where everything was sold.

For example, some household objects, second-hand things, etc., of course, there are also yellow paper and cinnabar.

These things are not so special, they are relatively common.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell the cinnabar here?" Tomorrow Kwan saw that the color of the cinnabar placed by one person on the side was relatively good, and he squatted down and asked.

Seeing someone asking about this kind of thing, the shopkeeper hurried forward, showing his big yellow teeth, and said, "What do you want to buy this thing for?"

"It's nothing, it's just asking someone to draw a rune for a town house and a home." Ming Ri said.

"Hey, my little brother has really good eyesight. If you want to draw the runes of the town house and settle down, it must be our small shop. Although our place is small, this cinnabar is an excellent thing. This cinnabar is drawn by the master. Sealed for a hundred years, it can be said to be the best." The old man laughed.

Tomorrow smiled helplessly and said, "Can I pick it up and have a look?"

"Of course." The owner of the black heart store smiled.

Shaking his head helplessly tomorrow, he directly picked up the cinnabar, put it up to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, then put it down and said, "How much do you plan to sell this cinnabar for?"

The owner of the black heart shop did not speak, but smiled with two fingers extended.

Gong Yan nodded and said: "Okay, twenty is not."

"Fuck you, twenty? You're sending beggars away." The owner of the black-hearted shop roared.

Gong Yan hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, two hundred, two hundred, you don't need to look for two hundred."

"Two thousand, not even a penny less." The owner of the black heart shop roared.

"Two thousand? What are you kidding?" Gong Yan asked in shock.

Tomorrow touched a little bit of the cinnabar and said: "You have a hundred years here? I think it is only two years. The real person does not tell lies. Can you sell cinnabar for three yuan per gram here?"

Hearing this, Gong Yan picked up the small jar of cinnabar and said with a smile, "Will you sell it for three hundred?"

When the shopkeeper heard this, the person in front of him obviously knew the goods, so he had no choice but to say: "Okay, three hundred is three hundred."

Talking about tomorrow, Gong Yan took out 300 yuan and threw it to the shopkeeper, saying: "You dare to play tricks on me, you don't want to live."

Tomorrow stretched out his hand to stop Gong Yan, smiled at the shopkeeper and said, "Here we all rely on this hand to make a living, well, let's go, let's find Langhao pens, yellow paper and so on."

"Hey, brother, wait a minute, the yellow paper is indeed not top-grade, but I do have one of the Langhao pens you want, how about you take a look?" The shopkeeper stopped tomorrow and said.

Tomorrow nodded, but Gong Yan looked reluctant, he was almost cheated by this unscrupulous store, and now he still buys things from him.

However, he didn't say anything tomorrow, and Miyako couldn't say anything more.

The shopkeeper took out a dusty Langhao pen from under the cabinet and handed it over to tomorrow.

"Tch, shopkeeper, it's fine if you planned to trick us before, but now what are you doing with such a broken pen? Look, it's full of holes, and it's already rotten by moths." Gong Yan roared.

"No, no, there was nothing wrong with this pen before, but it became like this overnight." The shopkeeper said.

Tomorrow frowned, and was very surprised by this pen. The Langhao pen originated from China. Of course, the Kanto Langhao pen in China is the best, and the market price is extremely expensive. Most of the common Langhao pens in the market are made of yellow horse hair or yellow cattle. The hair is made of fur, and some fake wolf hair pens are forged from goat hair.

But this Langhao pen, although the barrel is full of cracks, but the nib is perfectly preserved, it is definitely an excellent Langhao, it is definitely made of the authentic rat-tailed wolf hair in Kanto, and the year is said to be about a hundred years old .

The most important and rarest thing is that this brush is unusual, probably also held by a master of Taoism, there is already spirituality in the brush, this master of Taoism has an extraordinary background, because this kind of top-quality Langhao brush will definitely not appear in ordinary people. in the market.

"Boss, where did you get this pen?" Ming Ri asked.

"This pen is a long story. A few years ago, a middle-aged man took this pen and exchanged it with me for an ancient wooden disc. At that time, the quality of this pen was also very good, so I changed it. It became like this in two days." The shopkeeper said helplessly.

"Boss, what is that ancient wooden disc?" asked tomorrow.

"I don't know about that. It's just that there are many things engraved on the disc. It's an old thing, but it was damaged and it's not worth much, so I exchanged it with him." The shopkeeper explained.

Ming Ri nodded and said, "Then how much do you plan to sell this pen for?"

"Hey, no matter, I'm not going to raise the price. Since you know the goods, brother, I'll sell you this pen for a hundred dollars, and let me make up for the price difference of the ancient wooden disc." The shopkeeper said.

"What, you want to sell this broken pen for a hundred?" Gong Yan said in surprise.

Tomorrow smiled, took the money bag from Gong Yan, then took out one thousand and handed it to the shopkeeper, saying: "1000 yuan, be honest."

"Thank you, thank you," the shopkeeper hurriedly thanked after taking the money. The 1000 yuan was enough to cover my family's expenses for a month.

Gong Yan just wanted to say something, but was dragged away by tomorrow.

"Brother Ming, you give him back 1000 yuan for that broken pen." Gong Yan muttered.

Tomorrow laughed twice and said, "Okay, okay, will you still be short of money in two days?"

"Even if there is no shortage, but, that old bastard, why give him more money?"

"Don't worry, it's worth buying this pen for 1000 yuan." Ming Ri said with a smile.

"Is it worth it? Brother Ming, what is the origin of this money? Is it worth it even if the barrel of the pen is rotten?"

Ming Ri patted Gong Yan's shoulder with a smile and said, "This is not made by moths."

"Then, what's going on?" Miyako asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, this pen should have been shaken by spiritual energy and Yin energy to the inside of the pen holder, and then lost the support of spiritual energy, so it became like this. That is to say, this pen is a magic weapon, even if it is not a magic weapon. , the person who used it before must also be a master." Tomorrow said.

Gong Yan looked at the pen in disbelief, staring at the pen, unable to speak for a long time. As a psychic, he naturally knew what a magic weapon was. He did not expect this pen to have such an extraordinary origin.

"Brother Ming, really?"

"Besides, this pen is at least a hundred years old, and it's only 1000 yuan. Do you think it's worth it?" Ming Ri laughed.

"It's worth it. Of course it's worth it. It's not worth it. Brother Ming, you have really good eyesight. Let's see if there are any treasures." Gong Yan praised.

Tomorrow shook his head helplessly: "There are so many treasures waiting for someone to get them. Okay, let's go and see if we can find the yellow paper. If we can, we can solve the family problems for the old man first."

Gong Yan nodded and obediently followed behind tomorrow. He really did not make a mistake in choosing this master. Not only is his strength high, but his eyesight is also extraordinary. You have to ask Brother Ming how far he has cultivated.
