The reason why Liang Xingyang chose to cast the spell during the day instead of at night was that he was worried about being misunderstood as a sneak attack by the Bone Thief. He was originally a frightened bird, but suddenly saw a ghost fire appearing in the city and thousands of corpses on the streets. He might have to blow up the temple immediately. The county magistrate had to summon the city god, and it would be bad if the situation got out of control. On the other hand, Liang Xingyang also wanted to let the people in the city take a look, let the officials take a look, reflect on his past actions, and think about whether he could be clear about his guilt. Let the people see what they should do in the future.
Of course, the effect was not very good. After he burned all the corpses, everything in the city was still as quiet as a chicken, and there was no reaction at all. The same was true for the people. Everyone seemed not to have seen the black clouds pressing down on the city and the green fire burning the corpses that day. Scenes.
The escort team could not stay here forever. After a few days of correction, they set off again.
Liang Xingyang was riding on a tiger and swaggering through the market holding a horrifying Netherworld Bone Flag, causing those who walked with him to frown every time they glanced at it.
Liang Xingyang didn't care about everyone's comments behind their backs. When he didn't see the corpse on the way, he released jade fire to burn it. In terms of burning corpses, phosphorus yin ghost fire is much easier to use than yang fire. This fire is like water and is inextinguishable, even if No matter how wet or decaying the body is, it can be quickly burned into ashes. Unlike using sun fire, the body must be dried first before burning. In the end, the bones will be broken and the flesh will be charred, and the ground will be covered with black ash. After the will-o'-the-wisp fire, it will be white ash.
If there are too many corpses, he will use the Ten Thousand Bones Returning Method, which will cause the corpses to get up on their own, gather together and then burn them. Naturally, the escort team will not be able to stop and wait for him, but he walks quickly and can catch up quickly even if it takes half a day. .
On this day, Huang Shichong, the commander-in-chief of Mingzhou, led his troops to pick him up. He was responsible for escorting the rest of the route. Qu Yipiao completed the handover procedures and led the people back to Duiyuan Mianningzhou.
This is already the boundary of Zhongyuan, the core area of the dynasty. There was a big battle ahead of the Fengxiang Gorge, and the Bone Sect also suffered heavy losses. Once here, there is a high probability that it will no longer be possible to organize large-scale carjacking operations, and they can only fight on a small scale.
Huang Shichong brought 5,000 men and horses, all of whom looked sallow and thin, and had many dishes. Liang Xingyang heard people talking in private. Huang Shichong was known as the "Pickled Vegetable Soldier" and was known for his frugality. He only lived on pickled vegetables every day, and his clothes were covered in scars. Patch, his men followed suit and added more and more, which eventually led to the soldiers not having enough to eat at every meal and not seeing meat all year round.
These days, military pay is not sufficient, and false claims and deductions from soldiers are the norm. He can still have nearly half of his pay every year, which he gives to the emperor and put into internal funds, just to save money for the country.
He did not belong to the Mirror Party nor was he inferior to the Needle Party. No one wanted to see him, but the emperor regarded him as a capable minister and general. He repeatedly issued decrees to praise him and called on everyone to learn from him.
Huang Shichong escorted the convoy into Mingzhou Fucheng, which was also plagued by plague. However, when the epidemic began, the prefect Chen Weiting brought famous doctors from all over the state to Fucheng, and plundered nearly a hundred carts of medicinal materials from various counties, ensuring that The supply from Fucheng means that the epidemic here is not particularly serious.
However, this also resulted in a large number of people gathering from the surrounding suburban counties and villages to the city. They had no place to live in the city, and many of them could not afford to pay the fee to enter the city. They could only stay outside, in the south, north, west, and east of the city. , each formed a gathering place, which was more lively than ordinary township markets.
Liang Xingyang always held the Netherworld Bone Flag in his hand, which attracted the attention of the people. The officials who came out of the city to greet him were also surprised and puzzled.
Jian Dongcheng explained: "Those are the trophies obtained by Liang Xiaozhenren from slaying the Bone Bandits. They are to be taken to the capital to receive the reward."
Everyone was suddenly enlightened and praised one after another: "Zhenren Liang Xiaozhen is really powerful and amazing. Not only can he kill demons with a sword, just like chopping melons and vegetables, but he can also seize the magic weapon of the thief's head. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has great magical powers. !”
Liang Xingyang didn't want to pay attention to these sycophants. He saw that there were no corpses around Fucheng, and Jian Dongcheng showed kindness to him again, so he put the long flag into the Qiankun bag, which was around his waist.
The prefect Chen Weiting is only in his twenties this year. His father is a leader in the Mirror School. He said that he has read poetry and books since he was a child and is talented. Many people jointly recommended him. The emperor specially approved and promoted him. He achieved the fourth grade at a young age. Pinzhifu is in charge of the civil affairs of a state.
Chen Weiting was very good at doing things. He held a banquet that night and invited everyone to drink.
During the banquet, Magistrate Chen invited many beauties to sit with him. Since Jian Dongcheng, each of them had one, and a small stool was set up next to them to serve the guests with food and wine.
Everyone was already used to it, Jian Dongcheng got two, and they hugged each other. People from the four major immortal sects are also accustomed to it, such as Qianlang, Qianshu, Qianhe and others, allowing women to serve, pick up food and pour wine, but they don't use their hands.
It was the first time for Bai Junning and several other juniors to experience this kind of scene. All of them were blushing, and two of them were so hurried that they lost their temper and spit out their rice.
Liang Xingyang was too young, so Magistrate Chen asked him thoughtfully: "Do you want an older sister like them to serve you, or do you want a little sister who is about the same age as you? I heard that Xiaozhenren Fairy Sword Invincible, the Bone Thief is frightened by the news, why don't you, my sister and I, come together to serve you?"
Huang Shichong, the general pickle soldier, looked like he had never seen the world. He held the girl in his arms and asked, "Brother Chen, the girls here are so exquisite. I wonder how you can train them to be so beautiful."
Chen Weiting smiled lightly with a certain amount of pride: "In these famine years, many people sell their sons and daughters. Originally, I didn't want to do this. It's just that as officials, we have to benefit the people. We have studied hard since we were young. The book of sages, the sacred heart of the upper body, and the benefit of all the people, could not see that they were in dire straits, so they could only pay to buy them, keep them in the house, and provide them with delicious food and drink. If Mr. Huang likes it, he can come back I'll give Mr. Huang a few."
Huang Shicong laughed: "The relationship is good, so I will shamelessly let Brother Chen spend money!"
Liang Xingyang looked at these two shameless people saying shameless words here, wishing he could use his fingers to poke them one by one and paralyze them into a vegetative state.
He refused to continue sitting here: "Xu Shi is here. I want to go back to practice. I won't eat anymore. I can already live without food." After saying that, he raised his legs and left, making the scene very embarrassing for a while.
Returning to the room assigned to him, closing the doors and windows, Liang Xingyang meditated and practiced Qigong on the Arhat bed.
He is still in the first stage of the Alchemy Stage, "Setting Up the Furnace". The Alchemy Furnace has been successfully installed. During this period, the air is being supplied to ignite the fire, causing the temperature in the furnace to rise. It is repeatedly refined to form a dense purple gas, and then the purple gas is continuously cultivated and enriched, which will be the foundation for future alchemy.
Now the sword energy is integrated into the purple energy, and the Pure Yang Immortal Sword is inside it, being nourished and refined day and night. Chunyang Kendo emphasizes that the heart is the sword, the sword is the elixir, and the elixir is the heart, a trinity.
As the dense purple air becomes thicker and thicker, it evaporates upwards, fumigates and nourishes the limbs, bones, internal organs, and rushes up to the brain to implant mud pills. With this air, the soul can leave the body.
Liang Xingyang has long been able to leave his body and have his yin spirit travel outside his body, but he has not yet proven pure yang. Leaving the body at will is useless and harmful. But today he wants to go out for a walk and see what lies beneath the seemingly prosperous and quiet surface of Mingzhou Mansion. Are there as many bones as there are in other states and counties?
