After the Fairy Disappeared

  Chapter 157 Shui Ling is here again

  When He Lingchuan, Li Xiaowei and the others approached, Zhao Duwei had already lifted his head and shouted in all directions: "Pull the evil and do all the work, and the thief Lu will be punished!"

   Beheading the bandit leader of Woling Pass, this is a great achievement.

"Hey…"

   Captain Zhao looked over: "What?"

   "Lu Yao died so simply, it really took advantage of him." He Lingchuan scratched his head, this Captain Zhao is really good at fighting for merit, alas, no one is robbing him.

  The rest of the bandits in the field immediately scattered and fled for their lives, unable to make waves anymore.

  He Lingchuan felt hot in his neck.

  The bone necklace is actually acting like a demon again at this time?

  It did the same thing in the Immortal Cave this morning, and then it got into the ground and did something, and it collapsed the entire cave.

   Now it found something good again? He Lingchuan cheered up and tried to walk a few steps away.

  Going far away, Shengu became hotter, as if he wanted to yell at him to turn back.

   Whatever you run, there are treasures here!

  He pretended to chase the gangster with a knife, walked back and forth a few times, and found that only when he stood in front of Lu Yao's headless body, the **** bone necklace was as quiet as ever.

   That is to say, there is something coveted by the **** bone on Lu Yao?

  He Lingchuan rolled his eyes, squatted down and groped on the corpse for a while. The things in Lu Yao's arms, whether useful or not, were taken away by him; the ogre still wore two rings on his hands, and He Lingchuan didn't have time to tell whether it was storage space, so he just took them off and put them on his hands.

  He has done a lot of this work today, and now he is very familiar with it.

  Zhao Qinghe coughed twice from the side: "Young Master, Captain Zhao is looking at you."

  He started to pick up corpses before the battle was over, the young master's behavior was too outrageous, even he felt a little embarrassed.

  He Lingchuan could feel the displeasure and contempt in Captain Zhao's eyes without raising his head.

   Searching for treasures on the big boss was supposed to be the welfare of the officers and soldiers of the Zhechong Mansion, but this kid took the lead. If he hadn't been the son of the field manager, Zhao Duwei would have already slapped him with two big ears.

  He Lingchuan squeezed a few times and then stood up and walked away. Fortunately, this time the sacred bone necklace finally did not get hot.

  This proves that the thing it is targeting has fallen into the hands of He Lingchuan.

   Now that the victory has been decided, Pei Xinyong and the officers and soldiers gradually stopped.

  The official and the thief looked at each other, and they both saw the wariness in each other's eyes.

  Lian Deng rushed over, and Pei Xinyong asked immediately, raising his voice three degrees: "Is this the reinforcement you mentioned?"

  Lian Deng had no choice but to recruit from the facts: "General Wu was rescued by officers and soldiers, and he accepted the recruitment together with God Crocodile!"

  He smiled wryly, "From now on, we will eat public grain."

  Pei Xinyong gasped, feeling that this world is too mysterious.

  Last night, both Wu Shaoyi and the intelligence from the front told him that it was obviously Lu Yao who was recruited by Yuan Wangting. Why did the situation change completely today, and Wu Shaoyi was going to eat at the public house instead?

  What happened in the past few hours, or Wu Shaoyi had already rebelled?

  However, Zhao Duwei's attitude was quite arrogant, and he raised his head and asked him: "Pei Xinyong, will you surrender or not?"

   At this time, the fog had dissipated, and Pei Xinyong also saw that the number of officers and soldiers was about a thousand, which was not as good as his own. The problem is that Wu Shaoyi's former troops, who were recalled by Lian Deng, are also on the side of the officers and soldiers at the moment.

  There is not much difference in the number of people on the two sides, not to mention that Pei Xinyong's left shoulder was crippled, and every time he moved it, he felt excruciating pain.

  The atmosphere is quite subtle.

  He Lingchuan stepped forward and coughed hard: "There is still Lu Yao's remnant party in Desheng Town, and the surrendered general Wu Shaoyi is fighting hard there. How about we put aside the dispute and go to suppress the bandits first?"

  Captain Zhao has no objection.

  Pei Xinyong hesitated, then nodded.

  So the three armies drove together and rushed to Desheng Town.

   On the way, Zhao Qinghe also found a sneaky shadow in the grove beside the road.

  He winked, and several supporting troops rushed over on horseback.

There is nothing more to say next, Wu Shaoyi's department is dealing with the bandits in Desheng Town, and the joining of officers and soldiers immediately pushes the scale of victory to his side. The bandits die and flee, but most of them throw down their weapons Made a prisoner.

  In the chaos, Pei Xinyong led his troops to chase after the fleeing bandits, but they chased farther and farther, and soon disappeared.

  He Lingchuan was well aware of such a result; the two generals of the Zhechong Mansion seemed too lazy to take care of it, and turned a blind eye.

  Pei Xinyong's combat power is quite strong. They have won a lot of credit today, and they don't want to make any more troubles.

  Anyway, this Pei bandit will not stay in the local area for a long time. Wherever they go, let the local officials have a headache.

  After recapturing Desheng Town, Captain Zhao left Li Xiaowei to deal with the prisoners, then divided his troops and rushed to Xianling Village in the east, while he went to Qianteng Town together with Wu Shaoyi, He Lingchuan and others.

   This journey finally went smoothly.

   Soon, He Lingchuan joined his team.

  He had sent Mao Tao back to report the news earlier, and the He family was looking forward to it.

  Father and son met each other, both were overjoyed.

  He Chunhua came out from the crowd, rode his horse and rushed to his son, grabbed his shoulder and shouted: "You boy, you boy!"

  He was so excited, the words that followed were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't hold back, his handsome face was flushed red.

  Seeing him like this, He Lingchuan was also moved, and smiled innocently: "Father, I'm not so easy to hang up!"

   This time He Chunhua automatically translated "hanging" into the word "death", and said through gritted teeth, "I knew you were a lucky general. You are so fateful that even if you fall off a cliff, you won't die!"

  The rest of the crowd also gathered around and congratulated the young master for escaping from death, and they must come back wholeheartedly.

  Everyone looked closely at He Lingchuan, there were many minor injuries and no major injuries, and they all lamented how lucky this was. Others fall into meat sauce, but he hangs dots when he falls, and his face is not disfigured.

  The scene of the reunion of father and son suddenly became beaming.

  He Yue rushed forward and hugged each other's shoulders with his elder brother, and laughed loudly: "You came back alive!"

  Pressed by him, He Lingchuan let out a "hiss" and grinned: "It hurts!"

  There happened to be an ax wound on the shoulder, and the blood stopped long ago, but when He Yue pressed it, it opened again.

  He Yue was taken aback, apologized quickly, and turned around to call the military doctor.

   Mrs. Ying's eyes were a little moist, she looked at her eldest son and murmured: "It's good to be back, it's good to be back!"

  He Lingchuan grinned and showed her white teeth: "I'm so sorry." Then he took out the mahogany mirror from his bosom and handed it to Mrs. Ying, "Is this yours?"

   Mrs. Ying was overjoyed, took it and rubbed it lightly: "You snatched it back!"

  Seeing the blood on the eldest son's face, she couldn't help but lightly raised the handkerchief, pressed the blood on his forehead and said, "There is water in the car, go and wash your face."

  This action surprised He Chunhua, but He Lingchuan smiled and said, "Okay." He strode to the carriage and asked Qian Mama to scoop up some water to wipe his face.

  Then, He Yue called the military doctor.

  After a night and a day of fierce fighting and running around, he finally lay down on the soft brocade mattress. When the military doctor treated the wound, He Lingchuan couldn't support himself and fell into a deep sleep.

  But after the military doctor left, the sacred bone necklace worn by He Lingchuan suddenly started to flash red again.

  The light was very faint, and lasted only a few breaths, so no one noticed.

   It was the tortoise egg that He Lingchuan hid in his arms that suddenly moved.

  …

  He Lingchuan was sleeping soundly, and seemed to hear an old voice in a daze:

   "He Lingchuan, please bury the turtle eggs in the root hole under the tree when you pass the resurrected old locust tree at Fengling Ferry."

  The voice was very unfamiliar, and He Lingchuan felt strange: Who is it?

The other party seemed to be able to hear his heart, and said directly: "I am the water spirit of Xianling Lake. I wanted to look for you in my dream, but I was rejected at the door. It's hard to say. Come over with this sliver of divine thought. Heh, it’s so difficult to even get close to your dream, I found the right person.”

   Hey, this guy is the old turtle demon? He Lingchuan remembered that he seemed to have a life-threatening question to ask, but he couldn't think of it for a while.

   "You are the only person I have deduced that can help me stay away from the crocodile monster, so I ask you for help." The voice said again, "But the omen I predicted is definitely not empty words."

  He Lingchuan wanted to ask, is he sure to die?

"There is no ending in this world, which is called destiny." Shui Ling continued, "It's a pity that your fate is controlled by Wei Li, and others can't test it. I managed to get a few verses, hoping to help you get rid of the disaster of killing yourself as soon as possible. .”

   Guessing riddles again? !

  …

   After an unknown amount of time, He Lingchuan was shaken awake by He Yue: "We've arrived, get out of the car quickly!"

  He sat up, muttering something. He Yue seemed to hear his elder brother mutter something "hidden clumsy" and then "false reality", he couldn't help laughing: "Brother, what are you reading?"

   "I had a dream. In the dream, there was an old man who kept nagging me, but he just didn't say anything useful." He Lingchuan jumped out of the car while yawning, and found that the sky was full of stars and the evening breeze was blowing. He slept for at least two hours.

   "Are we in Chito Town?"

"Qianteng Town has passed by a long time ago. We are in Wuliu County. Qianteng Town is only a small town of more than 300 people. If the team wants to supply well, they have to come here." He Yue laughed, "Magistrate of Wuliu County Send someone to spread the word that a banquet will be held in Hongtai Building to calm us down."

   "Wuliu county magistrate is so attentive?" He Lingchuan was taken aback, "His news is really well-informed."

"Xianling Village, Qianteng Town, Desheng Town, the location of this incident all belong to Wuliu County." He Yue walked out with him, "The county magistrate has heard that the rebels are here to slaughter the village and join forces, and they are chasing and killing the king. Ting Daejun, I am deeply shocked, so I want to extend my deep condolences to us."

  Does Wang Tingjun refer to Dad? Hey, that's right, He Chunhua has already received a letter of appointment, legally he is the governor of Xiazhou, and he is indeed a local official.

  Wuliu county magistrate should be attentive. Thinking of this, He Lingchuan stretched happily, and looked around: "Huh, there are so few people in the team?"

"The inn in the county is not small, and the squire provided us with two Zhuangzi for free. We have settled down for so many people. Besides, the civilians in Xianling Village have already left the team in Qianteng Town, and Wuliu County will follow up. Take over Settling."
