"Li Yanran, the only eldest daughter of the Li family in Tanzhou..."
Sitting firmly on Pei Hong's carriage, Zou Qiwu couldn't help but ask until he was approaching Pei's house.
"I remember she seems to be the shopkeeper of 'Jucai Bank'?"
"How come you are related to Wende's senior brother?"
One is a wealthy country squire and aristocrat, and the other is a wandering monk who often lives in temples but has disappeared...
Zou Qiwu thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out why Li Yanran valued Hui Ji's junior brother so much, and even went so far as to offend a wealthy family for it.
"How they met before, I don't know..."
"But I think you should know about the 'catastrophe' that happened in Tanzhou!"
It was clearly a question, but Pei Hong used an affirmative tone when he said this sentence.
Although Pei Hong doesn't know much either, he still knows a little more than an outsider like Zou Qiwu.
"They are the protagonists of that 'catastrophe'."
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
After Pei Wende killed the big demon Fu Dou in Jingfan Town, Feng Hongye, who had the "Eye of Fu Dou", was also beheaded in Jingfan Town by the current Si Chen Envoy - Li Gang.
But the disaster caused by them has not subsided. Instead, it feels like it is getting worse.
Because at that time, in order to cure Feng Hongye's eyes, Hu Dou forcibly used the "Hidden Dragon Ascension Formation" to improve his destiny despite his insufficient cultivation, which in turn caused the legendary "Tengu to Eclipse the Moon".
In the ensuing battle, although Fu Dou failed to prove his truth, the evil spirit brought by "Tengu Eclipse the Moon" swept across the entire Tanzhou.
Compared with the Imperial Liquid that is gathered from pure moonlight, the evil spirit brought by "Tengu Eclipses the Moon" is not so mild.
All the demons that absorbed this evil spirit that night became more or less violent and surly, and began to appear frequently in the sight of ordinary people.
Thanks to the newly appointed Si Chen Commander Li Gang, who was resolute and resolute, and immediately reorganized the Qin Tianjian forces under his command, he was able to nip those demons that caused disaster in the cradle.
The old locust tree demon who was previously sealed outside Changsha County by Zen Master Lingyou was cut off by Li Gang under such circumstances and had to flee thousands of miles away.
However, what Li Gang never expected was that the demons who caused massacres in Tanzhou were actually just bait.
Taking advantage of the fact that the entire Qintian Prison was short of manpower and fighting fires everywhere, the "demon of destiny" that really caused this chaos - the locust demon gradually grew up with the power of killing and riots.
When Huiji went down the mountain at Li Gang's invitation, she happened to encounter a locust demon lurking in the Shence Army, intending to provoke a mutiny in this famine year.
Hui Ji immediately went to the military camp alone without hesitation. With her outstanding eloquence and courage, she forced the locust demon who was lurking in the army waiting for opportunities to cause chaos to show up.
The result of that battle is of course self-evident. Even if the newly born locust demon has the nickname "Demon of Luck", how can it be the opponent of Hui Ji who has half a foot on the other side?
It's just that although Huiji finally defeated the arrogant locust demon, her luck backfired and she was seriously injured. For a long time, she became a mortal who would get out of breath even if she walked too much.
In desperation, Huiji had no choice but to decide not to go to Chang'an for the time being, but to stay in Tanzhou for a while.
However, once a person is unlucky, he or she will have to squeeze cold water between his teeth.
Not to mention that Hui Ji was still attacked by luck this time. How could the locust demon, who was lucky enough to survive, let go of the monk who almost killed him?
So when the two sides met in Changsha, a huge battle broke out that shocked the world and made people cry.
But this time, Li Gang was not late after all. He arrived in time with the Lingtai officer and demon hunter from Qintian Prison, and helped Monk Huiji beat the locust demon seriously again.
It's a pity that the locust demon is indeed a "demon of destiny" born according to the general trend of heaven and earth and the will of all living beings. In that case, he managed to escape.
But this time, the locust demon, having learned its lesson, finally did not dare to stir up trouble in Tanzhou, but headed to prefectures and counties further north.
After all, compared to Tanzhou, which is fighting fires everywhere, the north, which has begun to suffer from famine, is more suitable for the survival and growth of locust demons. I believe that those officials will definitely not have the energy to hunt down a small locust demon.

"So it turns out that senior brother has gone through so many things without me knowing?"
After listening to Li Yanran's story in surprise, Pei Wende didn't know whether to complain about Hui Ji being too unlucky or being too trouble-making.
However, considering that he also seems to have this "plague halo", Pei Wende can only attribute it to the common attribute of his own lineage - everyone is a walking disaster star, an expert in causing trouble.
"It sounds like you've been through a lot?"
Keenly aware of the subtext in Pei Wende's words, Li Yanran asked in surprise.
She originally thought Hui Ji's experience was amazing enough, but now it sounds like Pei Wende's experience is no less than his?
"That's about it. I just met a mirage dragon, saved some victims, and also killed a demon Buddha..."
He talked lightly about what he had experienced during this time after Huiji came down from the mountain.
Pei Wende really didn't think there was anything to be proud of, but Li Yanran, who heard it in his ears and remembered it in his heart, felt an unprecedented shock.
As soon as the words "mirage dragon" and "demon Buddha" came out, Li Yanran felt that the locust demon that seemed to be at odds with Hui Jing was no longer an extraordinary existence.
[It sounds like you are quite proud? 】
While Pei Wende and Li Yanran continued to communicate, Xiaoqing's voice suddenly echoed deep in his heart.
[Uh, can you speak in my heart? 】
When he first heard this voice, Pei Wende was stunned for a moment, and then quietly muttered to himself.
[Is this mind reading? Or is he mentally connected? 】
[When did you learn this ability? 】
Pei Wende knew that Xiaoqing had learned a lot of secret techniques without telling him, but he really didn't know that Xiaoqing had actually learned this ability that was similar to "mind reading" and could directly communicate with his own mind.
[No, this is just the 'sequelae' of the last double cultivation. 】
After a brief silence, Xiaoqing's voice continued to ring in Pei Wende's heart.
[I just discovered this...]
After that, Xiaoqing didn't care whether Pei Wende believed it or not, so he fell silent again and stopped talking.
Only the inadvertent squirming under the clothes seemed to indicate that Xiaoqing's current mood was not as calm as she showed.
"Dual cultivation" can indeed deepen the spiritual connection between practitioners to a certain extent.
But to be able to communicate directly in each other's hearts like Pei Wende and Xiao Qing, both parties need to have a high degree of trust in each other to completely open and penetrate each other's hearts.
