Chapter 19

Xie Lian asked, "What's wrong?"

San Lang sat and spread out his hands. "What's wrong?"

Fu Yao frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

Xie Lian replied, "He's a friend of mine. Do you know each other? "

San Lang's face was full of innocence. "Brother, who are these two people?"

Hearing him call him brother, Nan Feng's mouth twitched and Fu Yao's eyebrows twitched. Xie Lian raised his hand at San Lang and said, "It's nothing, don't be nervous." Nan Feng shouted, "Don't talk to him!"

Xie Lian asked, "What, do you know each other?"

"… …"

Fu Yao coldly said, "No."

Xie Lian said, "If you don't know each other, then why are you … …" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something glowing beside him. Inadvertently turning his head to look, he saw that the two people had gathered a ball of white light in their right hands. A bad premonition spontaneously arose and he hurriedly said, "Stop, stop. Don't be impulsive! "

The two balls of white light that appeared out of nowhere looked very dangerous. They definitely weren't things that could appear in the hands of ordinary people. San Lang clapped his hands twice and politely said, "Amazing, amazing." These two words of praise were truly insincere. Xie Lian finally managed to hug the two people's arms. Nan Feng turned his head to look at him and angrily said, "Where did you meet this person? What's his name? Where does he live? What's his background? Why is he with you? "

Xie Lian said, "I met him on the road. He's called San Lang. I don't know anything, but because I had nowhere to go, I let him stay with me. Can you guys not be impulsive? "

"You … …" Nan Feng held his breath as if he wanted to curse. He forcefully swallowed it and asked, "You don't know anything and you dare let him in?! What if he has bad intentions?! "

Xie Lian thought to himself, why does Nan Feng's tone sound like he's his father? If it was another Heavenly Official or another person, hearing someone younger than them speak like this would have long since made them unhappy. However, Xie Lian had long since become completely indifferent to all kinds of scolding and ridicule. Secondly, he knew that these two people ultimately had good intentions, so he didn't care. At this time, San Lang said, "Brother, are these two your servants?"

Xie Lian warmly said, "Servant isn't the right word. To be more precise, it should be assistant."

San Lang smiled and said, "Is that so?"

He stood up, grabbed something, and threw it at Fu Yao, saying, "Then help me with something?"

Fu Yao didn't even look at it as he grabbed it. He held it in his hand and looked down. In a split second, black gas rushed up to his head.

This young man actually threw a broom at him!!!

His expression made it seem as if he wanted to smash the broom and the youngster into powder on the spot. Xie Lian hurriedly took the broom and said, "Calm down, calm down, I only have this one." Who would have thought that before he finished speaking, the ball of white light in Fu Yao's hand would be released. He shouted sternly, "Show yourself!"

San Lang didn't try to dodge at all. He still sat with his arms crossed. He only moved slightly to the side, and the dazzling white light hit one of the legs of the offering table. The table tilted, and with a crackling sound, the cups, plates, and bowls fell to the ground. Xie Lian slightly facepalmed. He felt that this couldn't continue. With a wave of his hand, Ruo Xie flew out and bound Nan Feng and Fu Yao's arms. The two struggled for a bit, but to no avail. Nan Feng angrily said, "What are you doing!"

Xie Lian made a pause gesture and said, "Let's talk outside, let's talk outside." With another wave of his hand, Ruo Xie dragged the two of them and flew out. Xie Lian turned around and said to San Lang, "I'll be right back." He closed the door behind him and walked to the front of the monastery. He first put away Ruo Xie, then took the sign in front of the door and placed it in front of the two of them. He said to them, "Please read it again and tell me what this is."

Fu Yao read the sign, "This monastery is a dilapidated building. We sincerely ask for donations to repair it and accumulate merit." He raised his head, "Asking for donations for a dilapidated building? You wrote this?? In any case, you're an ascended Heavenly Official, how could you write this kind of thing? Where's your dignity? "

Xie Lian nodded and said, "Yes. I wrote it. If you guys continue to fight inside, then I won't be asking for repairs, but rather building a house. At that time, I won't have any dignity. "

Nan Feng pointed at Pu Qi Monastery and said, "Don't you think that youngster is strange??"

Xie Lian said, "Of course I do."

Nan Feng said, "Then you clearly know that he's dangerous, yet you still dare to keep him by your side?"

Xie Lian saw that they had no intention of donating, so he put the sign back and said, "Nan Feng, what you said is wrong. People in this world have countless temperaments and fortuitous encounters. Being strange doesn't equate to being dangerous. You must know that in the eyes of others, I definitely look very strange. But do you guys think I'm dangerous? "

"… …"

This was something that couldn't be refuted. This person clearly had the demeanor of an immortal, yet he just happened to be collecting trash all day long. Wasn't this extremely strange?!

Fu Yao said, "Aren't you afraid that he has some ulterior motive?"

Xie Lian asked, "What do you guys think I have to plot?"

When these words came out, Nan Feng and Fu Yao were immediately at a loss for words.

This question was indeed very reasonable. If a person was plotted against by others, it was usually because they were guilty of possessing a treasure. But what made people sad was that when they thought about it carefully, they actually couldn't think of anything worth plotting against the current Xie Lian. If he wanted money, he didn't have money. If he wanted treasures, he didn't have treasures. Could it be that he still wanted the trash he collected every day?

Xie Lian continued, "Moreover, it's not like I haven't tested him before."

The two people's expressions froze as they asked, "How did you test him?" "What was the result?"

Xie Lian then told them about those times and said, "There was no result. If he isn't an ordinary person, then there is only one possibility left. "

Absolute!

Fu Yao sneered, "What if he really is absolute?"

Xie Lian said, "Do you guys think that the Desperate Ghost King is as idle as us? Come to a village and accompany me to collect trash. "

"We're not idle!"

"Yes, yes, yes … …"

On the small hillside, outside the Pu Qi Monastery, the three people could only hear the sound of that youngster leisurely walking back and forth inside the house. He sounded very satisfied, as if he wasn't worried about anything at all. Nan Feng said in a low voice, "No. We still have to think of a way to test whether or not he is absolute. "

Xie Lian rubbed the space between his eyebrows and said, "Then you guys can try. However, don't go too far. Maybe he really is just a young master who ran away from home? I hit it off with this little friend. You guys should be more friendly and don't bully him. "

Hearing the words' don't bully him ', Nan Feng's expression was one of speechlessness. Meanwhile, Fu Yao's eyes were practically about to roll to the back of his head. After warning them, he opened the door. San Lang had his head lowered as if he was examining the foot of the offering table. Xie Lian coughed lightly and asked, "Are you alright?"

San Lang smiled and said, "I'm fine. I'm just looking at whether or not this table can be fixed. "

Xie Lian warmly said, "What happened just now was just a misunderstanding. I hope you don't mind."

San Lang smiled and said, "Since you said it, why would I mind? Maybe they thought I looked familiar. "

Fu Yao coldly said, "Yes. They looked a bit familiar, so I might have made a mistake just now. "

San Lang giggled and said, "Oh. What a coincidence, I also thought these two people looked a bit familiar. "

"… …"

Although the two people were still vigilant, they didn't make any more extreme movements. Nan Feng said in a muffled voice, "Clear a place for me to draw the 'Thousand Li Shrink' array."

'Thousand Li Shrink' was the Earth Shrinking Technique. As the name implied, it could shrink a thousand li of mountains and rivers into a single step. Other than the fact that it consumed a large amount of transcendence energy every time it was used, it was incomparably convenient. Xie Lian put away the mat on the ground and said, "Draw here."

Just now, when Fu Yao had entered, he hadn't taken a good look at the furnishings in the temple. Now, after standing in this crooked little run-down house for a while, he looked around with an uncomfortable expression. Frowning, he asked, "You live in a place like this?"

Xie Lian brought him a stool and said, "I've always lived in a place like this."

Hearing this, Nan Feng's movements paused for a moment. After a moment, he continued drawing the array. Fu Yao didn't sit down. His expression also slightly froze for a moment. It was hard to tell what kind of expression he had on his face. It was ninety percent stunned, and ten percent gloating.

However, he quickly put away this strange expression and said, "Where's the bed?"

Xie Lian hugged the mat and said, "This is it."

Nan Feng raised his head and glanced at the mat, then lowered his head again. Fu Yao glanced at San Lang beside him and said, "You sleep with him?"

Xie Lian asked, "Is there a problem?"

After a while, the two of them didn't say anything else. It seemed like there was no problem. Xie Lian turned his head and asked, "San Lang ah, just now you were interrupted halfway through your sentence. What is the Half Moon Demonic Taoist? Can you continue? "

San Lang had been staring at them with a thoughtful expression. His eyes were pitch-black, but when he heard Xie Lian's question, he snapped back to reality and smiled slightly. "Alright."

After a pause, he said, "The Half Moon Demonic Taoist is the State Preceptor of the Half Moon Ancient Kingdom. He is one of the Dual Demonic Taoist Masters. "

Xie Lian said, "Of course there are two Dual Demonic Taoist Masters. Then who is the other one?"

San Lang answered every question and said, "It has nothing to do with the Half Moon Kingdom. It is a Demonic Taoist from the Central Plains called State Preceptor Fang Xin."

Xie Lian slightly widened his eyes and continued to listen.

As it turned out, the people of the Half Moon Kingdom were extremely strong and had a fierce and aggressive temperament. Moreover, they were located in a strange location, which was one of the most important checkpoints between the Central Plains and the Western Regions. The two countries often clashed at the border and had constant friction. Their State Preceptor was proficient in demonic arts, so the soldiers of the Half Moon Kingdom trusted him very much and followed him with all their hearts.

However, two hundred years ago, a dynasty from the Central Plains finally sent troops to attack and flatten the Half Moon Kingdom.

Although the Half Moon Kingdom was destroyed, the State Preceptor and the soldiers' resentment didn't disperse and stayed behind to cause trouble. The Half Moon Kingdom was originally an oasis. After the country was destroyed and became the Half Moon Pass, the oasis was gradually swallowed up by the surrounding desert as if it had been corroded by demonic energy. It was said that at night, people could often see tall soldiers of the Half Moon Kingdom with maces in their hands wandering around the desert, patrolling and hunting. Originally, there were tens of thousands of residents here, but they gradually couldn't survive and moved away. At the same time, there was also a legend that "every time a border was crossed, more than half of the people would disappear". As long as someone from the Central Plains passed through here, they would leave behind half of their "toll money" — — human lives!

Fu Yao put on a fake smile and said, "This young master, you really know a lot."

San Lang smiled and said, "Not at all, not at all. You guys just know a little less. "

"… …"
