In the next few days, Lu Zheng still ran around on both sides, but stayed in Dajing most of the time.
Shen Ying said she was in seclusion, but in fact she was just staying in Taohuaping to practice. It was not convenient to travel through, so Lu Zheng still went to Taohuaping.
Si Lingxi had nothing to do. In addition to giving Yang Caiyi guidance every morning, she and Lu Zheng went shopping in Haicheng from time to time to enjoy their world together.
Fortunately, I didn't run into Huang Xiumin.
…
On this day, Lu Zheng was playing chess with Si Lingxi in Peach Blossom Manor, while Shen Ying was watching the game.
"How far have Taozhen and the others traveled?" Lu Zheng asked while playing chess.
Shen Ying replied, "We have already passed Lingbei Road, Yinnan Road and Sanjiang Road, and now we have reached the boundary of Pingdong Road."
"That's pretty fast!" Lu Zheng asked, "Did you run into any trouble?"
"No." Shen Ying shook her head and said, "They mostly followed the official path. The Peach Blossom Temple under the imperial court did not encounter any trouble. In other wild temples, there were a few little monsters and imps who were destroyed instantly."
"Good luck!" Lu Zheng smiled.
Shen Ying nodded, "If everything goes smoothly, they will be able to return from the various roads in Central and South China in half a month."
When Lu Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh, "In this way, as their master, you have not been to as many places as them."
Shen Ying curled her lips, looked at the chessboard, then leaned forward, snuggled into Lu Zheng's arms, and drew circles on his chest, "I am going to visit various places in the second half of the year. When Lu Lang arrives, you must accompany me!" "
"Okay, okay!" Lu Zheng agreed.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Zheng felt the heavy look in his arms change.
"What's wrong? There is a new incense god greeting you?"
"No, it's Tao Zhen who is sending a message!" Shen Ying frowned slightly, stood up and said.
Theoretically speaking, if the Eighteenth Heavenly Girl does not encounter any accidents, she will not communicate at will.
After all, this kind of long-distance communication consumes a lot of incense gas every time. Those incense gods who get new peach branches only communicate with each other for the first time to say hello, and then no longer contact them casually.
Shen Ying stood up, waved her hand gently, and a peach branch appeared in her hand, with a rich scent of incense on the surface.
Compared with Si Lingxi's phoenix divine fire, which can condense into an image and even reveal the surrounding environment and the speaker's true voice, Shen Ying's long-distance communication technology, which is based on the smell of old peach trees and incense, can only transmit messages by soul.
But it’s enough!
Lu Zheng stopped making moves and looked at Shen Ying, and saw Shen Ying's brows were slightly furrowed and her eyes were focused.
"What's up?"
"Taozhen and the others discovered demonic energy in a ghost in a wild temple."
"Devil energy?" Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows.
Shen Ying nodded, "There is a wild temple in Langtaoshan, Duyan County, Lianzhou, Pingdong Road. After "Taoyao" was spread, people from some surrounding mountain villages rebuilt statues in this temple to worship the Peach Blossom Fairy.
After Tao Zhen and the others went there, they discovered that this temple was not established by the imperial court. The god of incense and fire in the temple was the incarnation of a civet cat. Not only did the villagers be required to sacrifice live animals every season, but there was also a pit behind the temple where human bones were buried.
So they took action to slay the demon. Unexpectedly, the civet cat finally revealed its demonic body and used magic. Although it was eventually killed by Tao Zhen and the others, they did not dare to neglect when it came to monsters, so they notified me. "
"Is it because Wu Xin really desires the devil's energy?" Lu Zheng asked.
"I don't know. They are not cultivated enough to tell the difference." Shen Ying shook her head, "They have already gone to see the Emperor of Duyan County, but since monsters are involved, I asked them to go to Lianzhou Town Yisi again."
Lu Zheng rubbed his chin, "During the Chinese New Year, Huang Ruoxing said that he would send people to Lianzhou and Yuezhou to investigate, but it's been almost a month now. Why are there still monsters lurking in the countryside?"
Si Lingxi shook her head, "If monsters could be detected so easily, there would have been no monsters long ago under Da Jing's rule."
Lu Zheng looked at Si Lingxi, "Could the demonic energy that Senior Song detected be this wild god?"
"Definitely not." Si Lingxi shook her head and said, "How could this little country god refine the demonic energy into the earth's veins, so that Song Kaichuan could sense it and mistake it for the old devil or his disciple?"
To make Song Kaichuan have such a misunderstanding, the monster must have at least a thousand years of Taoism.
Lu Zheng thought for a while and said, "We killed the Black Heart Demon, the Mysterious Heart Demon, and the Chaotic Heart Demon. Lingxi also killed those four fake guys in southern Xinjiang. According to Lingxi's judgment, the Wuxin True Desire Demon Ancestor has not yet There are only one or two true disciples who have died."
Shen Ying said, "I guess it's just like before, the secret magic skills of the Wuxin True Desire Demon Ancestor are passed down. This is how the magic skills, magic treasures and monsters all over the Great Scenery come from."
Old demonic powers disappear, and new demonic powers appear. If the demons in the upper world are not extinct, then the demons in the world will not be extinguished.
"Whether he is the disciple or grandson of the Wuxin True Desire Demon Ancestor or not." Lu Zheng frowned, "Anyway, there is a big demon behind this monster?"
"I can't say for sure." Si Lingxi shook her head again and said.
Maybe he just accidentally acquired a magic skill or magic treasure, maybe there is a demon who values the transmission of the magic, maybe he himself got the demon in his dream...
"Taozhen and the others won't be in danger, right?" Shen Ying said worriedly.
"Probably...no way..." Lu Zheng thought for a while, "The people from the Qintian Prison should still be there. Taozhen and the others went to notify the Yisi Division of Lianzhou Town, and then it was time to go downstairs."
"But..." Lu Zheng smiled, "If you are worried, how about we go on a trip to Lianzhou?"
Shen Ying thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "No, there's nothing to worry about. He's just a little country god who just practiced magic. If this kind of thing can make us run away, then let's not do it in the future." Other things."
Back then, Lu Zheng broke into Jiming Temple and encountered Rong Song being chased by monsters in Taohuaping. He didn't see these monsters always following the boss, not to mention that there was only one person in the Taohua Temple who even Tao Zhen and others couldn't defeat. How could a little country god be protected by a demonic elder at any time?
Seeing that Shen Ying had made a decision, Si Lingxi nodded, "Relax and leave the matter to your subordinates. If your subordinates can't handle it, it's not too late to take action. If your subordinates are harmed by others, you can avenge them." yes."
Shen Ying nodded and said, "Thank you, Sister Lingxi, for your advice."
It has to be said that Si Lingxi is indeed a qualified superior. Although Phoenix Mountain is such a powerful force, she does not have to do everything personally.
Of course, Shen Ying will not forget that the reason why they met Si Lingxi was because Si Lingxi's palace maid was killed by a pig demon. They accidentally killed the murderer and made peace with Wansong Taoist. Si Lingxi got along more happily.
Whatever you gain, you must lose, that's all.
Therefore, Shen Ying decided to wait for the Eighteen Heavenly Maidens to come back and let them retreat again!
