Sure enough, after repelling these two powerful corpses and knocking them to death, there would be no further trouble.

Li Miao rowed the small wooden boat and successfully returned to the small dock on the shore.

The two of us jumped out of the boat, tied the small wooden boat to the wooden piers at the dock, left the river, and returned to Li Miao's cabin in front of the woods in the distance.

Woof woof woof!

Heizi swung his big furry tail, came forward affectionately, and circled Li Miao and me several times.

Then it turned around and deliberately used its big tail on us again, sweeping back and forth a few times.

Seeing my confused look, Li Miao explained.

"This is Heizi helping us clean away the yin and moisture brought from the river. On the river at night, even if you don't encounter corpses, there will still be yin and evil moisture entering the body. If it accumulates for a long time, people will become weak."

"I see, Heizi is so good. I'll bring you double the meat next time!"

I squatted down with a smile and rubbed the big black dog's head vigorously.

It stuck out its long tongue and narrowed its eyes, looking very comfortable.

I feel like it's smiling.

Li Miao also smiled and said: "Heizi has a very good memory, brother Wu. Now that you have made a promise, don't forget it next time. Otherwise Heizi will be unhappy."

I said that I will definitely never forget it.

Petted the dog for a while.

Li Miao and I returned to the cabin. He made two cups of hot tea and chatted casually while drinking it.

There was no time to discuss it in detail before, so Li Miao only knew a rough idea about the Golden Thread Youtan and the Deadly Demonic Tree.

Now that we have experienced so much together, and in the future we have to work together to explore the treasure that is coveted by countless corpses at the bottom of the river and coveted by the river god, then we are just grasshoppers on a rope.

What's more, Li Miao wants to help me retrieve Zhou Min's body!

So he was trustworthy, so I told him the causes and consequences of these two incidents in great detail. Li Miao was sometimes amazed when he heard this.

"Brother Wu, your master is really well-informed. I have never even heard of such exotic flowers and herbs as Red Fire Xiangtan and Golden Thread Youtan. She actually knows so clearly, and even knows this The transformative relationship between two rare treasures. No wonder the coffin maker Cao admires her so much."

I nodded: "My master is indeed a strange person."

Then he smiled and said casually: "It's just that to outsiders, she may have a weird personality. And she has been living in seclusion in our village. She doesn't want to care about outside affairs."

What I said also put an end to Li Miao's idea of ​​asking my master to help us investigate together.

Of course, maybe he has no such idea at all, but I still have to point it out tactfully.

This is not because I am scheming, but it is an attitude between friends to avoid embarrassment.

Li Miao's tone was a little low: "I naturally know about the 'tribulation' of practitioners. Most people who are pretty strong or have some inheritance of Dharma should know more or less. It's just that , don’t talk about me, even my master is not qualified to touch the 'tribulation'."

yes!

People who learn Xuanmen magic, even if they are called "eating the Yin people" in some professions in the folk dharma lineage, do not have a high status, but they are not considered ordinary people anyway.

Somewhere along the way, we will definitely face some disasters from heaven.

But not every cultivator will face this kind of disaster - after all, God is not that free, right?

Only when you are already strong can you face your own disaster.

I can understand Li Miao's worry.

There is actually a person hiding in the town of Two Rivers who may have touched the edge of his own "disaster", and they don't even know it! There is even a possibility that this person is still an evil cultivator.

Who is not afraid?

But there is no way, the facts have to be faced.

At most, the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will come to cover it up.

After chatting with Li Miao for a while, I was ready to say goodbye and go back.

I agreed to stay at Lao Cao's house and I have to help him with some work.

It turned out that Lao Cao had been working on the expensive huanghuali wood coffin recently. I have to go back and start fighting.

Coming out of Li Miao's cabin, the river breeze was blowing on my face, which was quite cool.

It is now the end of September, and although the southwest Sichuan and Chongqing areas are still hot during the day, it has begun to get a little cooler at night. Especially on the riverside, it can even get a little cold if you don’t wear a jacket.

I saw that it was not too late at this time, probably around 11 o'clock in the evening, so I walked back slowly.

First, you have to cross the entire cobblestone river beach, and then you can turn onto a three-meter-wide dirt road. Walking a mile or two further, there will be a relatively easy-to-walk cement road - it can be regarded as entering the traffic range on the outskirts of Lianghe Town.

On this road, you can occasionally see sparse small bungalows and some factories.

At that time, the economy had begun to develop greatly, and even our town had several chemical plants, cardboard factories, and the like. In fact, it polluted the environment very much, but at that time, no one cared about it...it was completely different from now when we attach great importance to environmental protection and ecology.

But these bungalows and factories along the road were all in darkness at this time, with only a vague outline. Like some strange beast, watching me in the dark.

To be honest, if an ordinary junior high school student were to walk alone in a place like this at eleven o'clock at night, he would probably be scared to death!

Of course I'm not afraid.

Halfway through the journey, there were already street lights starting to appear at intervals. Just turn a corner ahead and you will enter the outskirts of the town, approaching the fork in the road where the Duan family's mansion is located.

Suddenly a man came out from the roadside.

This guy was probably squatting in the gutter next to him, so I didn't notice much just now.

In the very dim and flickering light of the street lamp, I could see that he was dressed in rags and was holding a broken bowl in one hand. The other hand was holding a wooden stick.

He looks like a beggar.

This guy was mumbling something and coming towards me laughing.

"Good Samaritan, please give me some money. Good Samaritan, please give me some money. I'm really hungry. I haven't eaten for many days. Please give me some money."

The beggar came to me and blocked my way.

He was about a head shorter than me, with a stooped body and wearing a pair of worn-out straw sandals. Very pitiful.

I looked at his bowl, it was empty, there was nothing.

I didn't say anything, just stared at him.

The beggar also stared at me, and then suddenly smiled. He grinned, revealing his white teeth.

Don't tell me, this guy is dirty all over, and his face is covered with dust and dirt.

But the teeth are very white, so white that they shine, which is very abnormal. Reminiscent of some kind of animal or beast.

I said, "I went out to do something, and I left in a hurry. I didn't bring the money you asked for. So I really have no choice, so I won't give it to you this time. I want to go back. Please give in."
