Searching for the best path, starting from Renjia Town

Chapter 41: Marshal's Mansion

"Master!"

"Why did you come back?"

In the yard, seeing Nian Ying coming back, Zhe Gu's face was full of joy.

"If you don't come back, I'm going to your sister's house to ask for you."

"Master, something happened at my sister's house!"

"Something happened?"

Li Kunshan, who had just come out of the room, was startled and then walked over quickly.

"What happened."

Zhe Gu also looked surprised and asked quickly.

"What happened to your sister?"

"It's not my sister, it's my brother-in-law. He seems, seems..."

Nian Ying's face was full of anxiety, and she stomped her feet hard before she could explain it clearly.

"He seems to have touched something dirty!"

"Dirty things? That shouldn't be the case..."

Zhe Gu frowned slightly, a little confused.

The so-called dirty things are nothing more than some lonely ghosts, fox spirits, flower spirits and the like. Ordinary people can easily suffer if they encounter these things.

But Nianying's brother-in-law Long Daguang is different, he is a warlord.

Although he was just a small warlord, he had thousands of men and guns under his command.

Men are inherently yang, and soldiers with guns in their hands have even more yang energy. Wherever soldiers gather, ordinary ghosts cannot even get close, let alone try to kill them.

Long Daguang's home is heavily guarded, and there are always a large number of soldiers following him when he goes in and out. How could he encounter something dirty?
"Don't worry, I'll go with you and see. No matter what kind of monsters there are, they will retreat when they see my Sugar Girl!"

Zhe Gu touched Nian Ying's forehead and patted her chest to make a promise.

Then he packed up his magic tools and prepared to go to the Marshal's Mansion with Nian Ying.

"Uncle Master, I'll go with you."

Li Kunshan came over and said something.

"you?"

Zhe Gu frowned and looked at Li Kunshan.

"Don't you want to practice?"

"One or two days of cultivation won't make a difference."

"……OK then."

Thinking of Uncle Jiu's words, Li Kunshan could do whatever he wanted. Zhe Gu said nothing more and nodded.

The three of them went out together and headed for the Marshal's Mansion.

Nianying had a bicycle, which Li Kunshan rode, with Nianying sitting behind him. Zhegu also had a pedal tricycle, with her magical instruments in the cargo box.

The Queen Mother Temple is only a few dozen miles away from the Marshal's Mansion. If three people ride their bikes, they can get there in an hour or two even though the roads are not all main roads.

"I wonder if it's..."

Walking on the road, Li Kunshan was thinking in his heart.

How could Long Daguang be possessed by evil spirits for no reason? And according to Nian Ying's description, it was more like he was poisoned by corpse poison!

Could it be that the story of the new Mr. Zombie has begun?

In the movie, Uncle Jiu worships a group of spirit babies. Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai always provoke them. Three of the evil babies are extremely dangerous, so Uncle Jiu sends them to Zhe Gu.

A woman accidentally opened the seal of an evil baby and was controlled by the evil baby. She then went to the Marshal's Mansion to serve Long Daguang's pregnant wife, hoping that the evil baby would be born in her womb.

During this period, Long Daguang was bitten by a zombie. Uncle Jiu then took his apprentice to the Marshal's Mansion, and then fought with the evil baby to prevent a disaster.

But right now, Uncle Jiu has not yet recovered the spiritual infant, so how did Long Daguang get infected with the corpse poison?
This world is a mixture of many films and TV series, and the characters influence each other, which changes the plot to a certain extent. This is very likely to happen.

In short, you will know the specific situation after you go and see it.

As for why Li Kunshan wanted to get involved, it was not just out of curiosity.

If a ghost appears, you can kill it and plunder the entry. The system is Li Kunshan's greatest reliance. Compared with foolishly burying your head in cultivation, plundering the entry increases strength faster!

"By the way, Nianying."

Having made up his mind, Li Kunshan suddenly said to Nianying.

"When we get to the Marshal's Mansion, don't say I'm Uncle Jiu's apprentice. Just say I'm your senior brother."

"Why?"

Nianying frowned, a little confused.

Li Kunshan coughed lightly and deliberately frowned.

"Don't ask so many questions, kid. Just do as you are told."

"You're only a few years older than me."

Nian Ying was a little unconvinced, but still nodded obediently. "Okay then, I'll just say you're my senior brother."

"You're bullying my apprentice again."

Zhe Gu was standing by and gave Li Kunshan a look with a smile.

"What a naughty little guy!"

Before becoming a Taoist priest, Uncle Jiu had a childhood sweetheart, Nianying's sister Michelle. Long Daguang also knew this and had always held a grudge against Uncle Jiu.

If he knew that Li Kunshan was Uncle Jiu's apprentice, he would probably hate him as well.

As they were talking, they passed by a small forest.

Li Kunshan looked around and became alert.

In the film, Nianying and Zhegu go to the Marshal's Mansion, where they encounter the fierce "Red and White Fighting Evil Spirit" in the woods. If it weren't for Zhegu's powerful Taoist magic, I'm afraid both of them would have been doomed.

Fortunately, the current situation did not develop completely according to the original plot. The three of them passed through the woods smoothly without encountering any dirty things.

We chatted and walked at the same time, and time didn't seem to pass slowly.

Just after noon, the three arrived at the Marshal's Mansion.

"salute!"

It was a three-story Western-style garden house with armed guards standing at the door and around it. When they saw Nian Ying and his men coming, they shouted and gave a not-so-standard military salute.

Nian Ying was already used to it, but Zhe Gu and Li Kunshan were startled by his shout.

"Sister! I'm back!"

Pulling Zhe Gu into the room, Nian Ying shouted inside.

"coming."

There was a response from upstairs, and then a beautiful young woman came downstairs pulling a middle-aged man in a high-end military uniform.

It was Nianying’s sister Michelle and brother-in-law Long Daguang.

"Oh, I've already told you, I'm not sick, my feet are just a little stiff and my hands are a little itchy, that's all. No need to read Master Ying's words..."

Long Daguang was pulled by Michelin and grumbled reluctantly.

Michelin gave him a look and then immediately shut up.

I have to say that no matter what his character is, Long Daguang is very good to his wife.

As the "Marshal", he was considered the number one figure in this area. Not only did he not take a concubine, but he also took great care of Michelin and obeyed her every word.

"Zhe Gu, you are here, welcome!"

Before Nian Ying became his disciple, Long Daguang had already met Zhe Gu and came forward to greet her with a smile.

When he got there, he was startled to see Li Kunshan standing next to him.

"Who is this kid? I've never seen him before."

"This is my senior brother."

Nianying spoke, and as instructed, she did not say that Li Kunshan was Uncle Jiu's apprentice.

"Senior Brother? That's also Zhe Gu's apprentice."

Long Daguang smiled, but was puzzled again.

“Why haven’t I heard of it before?”

"Don't say any more, let me show you first."

Zhe Gu changed the subject, pushed Long Daguang down on the chair, and began to examine him.

Li Kunshan came here for the first time and looked at the decorations everywhere with great interest.

As the commander-in-chief, Long Daguang lives more luxuriously than Ren Fa, the richest man in Renjia Town.

Sure enough, in this era, those with money are no match for those with guns.

"You're not possessed by evil spirits, you're poisoned by corpses!"

After a moment, Zhe Gu exclaimed.

Li Kunshan looked over and saw two holes on Long Daguang's neck. The surrounding skin and flesh had already died, just like in the movie.

"Corpse poison!"

Michelle and Nian Ying were both surprised, and then asked anxiously.

"Is there any hope?"

"No way."

Long Daguang, who had been nonchalant just now, was now filled with fear and held Zhe Gu's hand tightly.

"Aunt Zhe, you must save me. My wife hasn't given birth to a son for me yet."

"Don't worry, I'm here with you, don't worry."

Zhe Gu looked confident and said after thinking for a while.

"The poisoning isn't too severe. Glutinous rice can slowly remove it. However, the key issue now is to find out how you contracted the poison so that we can permanently eliminate it!"
