Chen Ke settled the gray-haired mouse and pulled the frightened donkey back to the ruined temple.
Putting the donkey at the gate, the donkey screamed: "Evil! Evil!"
When Chen Ke saw this, he had no choice but to untie the donkey from the car, lead it into the ruined temple, and throw it into the yard.
"Just take it here. You know what's going on outside. It's not like being eaten by a monster and just staying here."
"Evil!"
The donkey seemed to be a human being. He no longer acted frightened or uneasy after entering the ruined temple.
The car was left outside. Apart from monsters, Chen Ke really didn't see many people in the wilderness. People from the distant villages didn't come here very often. A forest separated them and the surroundings were very quiet.
Don't worry about thieves, even the beggars near the capital will not beg here.
"Wow, brother Chen Ke is back!"
Xiaobao ran out of the room, followed by Sister-in-law Qin. When Sister-in-law Qin saw Chen Ke buying a small cart of things, she said, "There's no need for so much."
Chen Ke said: "It's just some household items. It's inconvenient for you and Xiaobao to be here. I'll buy them together. See what's missing. I'll go tomorrow."
"Brother Chen Ke, where is my candied haws?" Xiaobao blinked his big eyes and looked at Chen Ke innocently.
Sister-in-law Qin laughed, knelt down and said to Xiaobao: "Brother Chen Ke will have a look at today and the future of selling candied haws."
"Okay...Brother Chen Ke, you can't forget, I want a small one." Xiaobao said, squeezing his little hand.
Chen Ke touched Xiaobao's head and said, "Don't worry, there will be no shortage. I will buy you a bunch tomorrow."
"Just one." Xiaobao said with a smile.
He thinks brother Chen Ke is the best person.
With the help of Sister Qin, Chen Ke and the others took everything on the donkey cart into the room. On the other side of the yard, there is a stove that has been prepared.
Sister-in-law Qin picked up some wood and made a fire to cook. Xiaobao was helping while Chen Ke waited for dinner.
There were three sumptuous meals in the evening, including two stir-fried vegetables, a plate of bacon, and a pot of wild vegetable soup.
After dinner, Chen Ke picked up a cloth curtain and used a branch to set it up in the left room of the main hall. It served as a screen to separate Sister Qin and Chen Ke.
Chen Ke sat cross-legged on the ground. The teacher took his futon with him when he left. The room was empty except for bricks.
Chen Ke must practice the "Supreme Taoism" given by his teacher every day. As long as he practices to the 81st day, he will become a real immortal master and a real practitioner!
Today, he is facing a life and death crisis, which makes Chen Ke understand that only with strong power can he protect his friends and the important people around him!
You can also make some money... these are small things.
The important thing is to become an invincible immortal!
After practicing the Supreme Taoism, Chen Ke was silently reciting the Taoist book again. The things the teacher gave were all good treasures. When Chen Ke saw the gray-haired mouse, he just listened to a sentence, as if he understood something, and he wanted to Learned some insights from the book "Tao".
Even if he can't understand the magic, he's still better than...well, better than the old vixen.
Chen Ke thought that when he became more powerful and learned some Taoist skills, he would definitely defeat the old fox so that he could no longer harm others.
early morning.
The rays of light shine inside the ruined temple.
When Chen Ke woke up, Sister Qin had already woken up early to cook.
Chen Ke looked at Sister Qin working hard, thought for a while and said, "Sister-in-law, when I have some more money, I will build a courtyard for you to live next to my Taoist Gate. This place is too small and I feel wronged to you."
Sister-in-law Qin brought the food and said with a smile: "What's wrong with us? We are already satisfied to have a place to live."
Just thinking about the unfaithful person she entrusted to her, Sister-in-law Qin's eyes were filled with sadness again.
After dinner, Chen Ke went to the Yamen on duty.
Today, he promised Xiaobao to bring skewers of candied haws, and when he goes back in the evening, he will bring two skewers back.
At noon, when Chen Ke was eating.
Long Tu came over with Bai Huwei and invited Chen Ke to a quiet room.
"Chen Ke, this matter is of great importance, you need to calm down."
Before Long Tu said anything, he asked Chen Ke to calm down.
Chen Ke said: "Sir, I am already very calm. I have faced life and death and experienced disasters, so I will not get angry."
Long Tu said: "Okay, now that you have calmed down, I will also talk to you."
"Sir, please speak." Chen Ke said.
Long Tu said: "Guard Bai also told you yesterday. Today, I am officially telling you that the cross tattoo case has not been concluded yet. I have secretly reported to His Majesty to continue to trace the real culprit of the cross tattoo case, that is, Zhao Jia. The mastermind behind the scenes."
After hearing this, Chen Ke's heart tightened, he clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Sir, is it really Na An..."
"Don't mention it, I know who you are talking about." Long Tu stopped Chen Ke from speaking, "It is most likely someone from there, but I don't know if it is the owner or some of the servants who have selfish motives! This matter has something to do with it. You said, I want you to understand, don’t contact them too much!”
Chen Ke said: "They never came to see me."
Long Tu smiled and said: "I talked to Brother Situ about you. He said that your family was ruined by practitioners. An Sheng Palace is very interested in you and wants to recruit you to become one of them."
Chen Ke thought it would be good to enter Ansheng Palace, as it would be easier to investigate their crimes.
After he talked to Long Tu, Long Tu disapproved: "They have a special method. After you enter, it's like you have a different concept. You are not a practitioner, so don't try it."
Chen Ke said: "I am a practitioner."
Long Tu chuckled, and Guard Bai also smiled. Long Tu comforted Chen Ke and said, "I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry. That place is not an ordinary place. Even His Majesty must be cautious. If they really intervene, you The revenge can only depend on luck!"
"What do you mean?" Chen Ke asked.
Long Tu said: "If the master there is the real culprit, keep this matter sealed and don't mention it again. If the servant is the real culprit and the master doesn't know it, I can ask your majesty to reprimand them and let them hand over the real culprit. But it's still 55 The number cannot be completely guaranteed.”
Chen Ke understood, it was still what Long Tu said before, the laws of the world can only restrain mortals, practitioners are not mortals, and the law can no longer restrain practitioners!
Chen Ke said solemnly: "I am also a practitioner. If it is really them, I will carry out the laws and orders!"
"Do you want to practice immortality? The traces of the immortals in the Zhao Kingdom are erratic and difficult to find. You can go to the Nanzhao Kingdom in the south. There are witch doctors there, which can be regarded as a kind of magic practice."
Bai Wei said.
Chen Ke shook his head and said: "No, I am already practicing. It's just that you haven't felt it yet. Wait for seventy days and you will know that what I said is true. I will go on duty first. Don't worry, I won't act impulsively. .”
Since Long Tu would not let Chen Ke join Ansheng Palace, Chen Ke would not force himself to join Ansheng Palace. He just wanted to know if An Shenggong was the mastermind behind the murder of his aunt!
The minister of Dali Temple is also from Ansheng Palace.
Chen Ke suddenly discovered that many dignitaries in the court seemed to have connections with Ansheng Palace.
"No matter how powerful you are, no matter how entangled you are, if I practice Taoism, I will definitely make you pay the price!"
Chen Ke's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Long Tu looked at Bai Huwei and said, "Brother Chen Ke, isn't his spiritual vein blocked and unable to practice?"
Bai Huwei said: "That's what the Minister of Dali Temple said. Maybe Chen Ke has been under a lot of pressure recently and has been deceived."
Long Tu was a little worried and said to Bai Huanwei: "You should ask people to watch him more. The departure of close relatives at home and the death of Capt. Xie for him have hit him hard. I'm worried that he will act impulsively!"
Bai Huwei said: "Don't worry, sir, I will take good care of him."
The more Long Tu investigated, the more frightened he became. He originally thought that the cross tattoo case was just a military conspiracy, but who knew it was actually related to Ansheng Palace.
In the end, Long Tu didn't know how to deal with An Sheng Palace. Although he has the intention to enforce the law fairly, the practitioners are outside the law!
"If there is really a practitioner who can break this deadlock, it will be a great thing for this case and the State of Zhao."
Long Tu looked up at the sky. Pale white clouds were floating in the sky.
In the afternoon, I went to the office.
Chen Ke specially bought two bunches of candied haws, wrapped them in oil paper, and headed out of the city.
Passing by the grocery store, the owner next to the grocery store shouted: "Chen Ke, don't let me take my donkey away."
"Don't worry, your donkey has been well fed for you, and I will return it to you when I'm done with it." Chen Ke responded.
After walking out of the city, Chen Ke watched the afterglow fall over the western mountains and strode towards the ruined temple.
Today, it seemed a little quiet. When passing through the forest, Chen Ke unexpectedly did not meet the succubus in gauze and willow clothes.
Just when Chen Ke thought that the banshee had lost her way, he met her halfway.
"I'm telling you, I really don't like you. You should find someone else to be your husband."
Chen Ke said helplessly.
The banshee giggled and said: "I saved you last night, but you are so heartless. Don't you remember my kindness?"
Chen Ke thought for a moment and said, "I will never forget your kindness, but if you want to kill me, I can't give you my life. Why don't you change the conditions? If I can do it, I will definitely do it."
"That person wants to sleep with you for the night." The banshee leaned against the tree, her face looking seductive.
When Chen Ke heard this, he quickly shook his head and said, "No, no. You think of a good condition first, and I'm leaving."
Chen Ke trotted back to the ruined temple.
The temple was very dark and the lights were not lit. Chen Ke was a little surprised. He had bought an oil lamp and lamp oil yesterday. Why didn't Sister Qin light the lamp?
"Sister-in-law, I'm back."
Chen Ke said loudly, but no one responded, and Xiaobao didn't come out to ask for candied haws.
"What's going on?" Chen Ke walked in quickly. The door was not closed, leaving a crack. There was no one in the room. The food on the table had been cold for a long time. It should be lunch.
Where did Sister Qin go?
Chen Ke walked out to find the gray-haired mouse. The gray-haired mouse was still recovering from his injuries. When he heard Chen Ke's inquiry, he walked out immediately.
"I never heard Sister Qin's cry for help."
