Chapter 167 The Statue of the Mythical Beast Travels South Again

In the ancestral hall, a trace of smoke entered Duanmuyan's mouth. Duanmuyan's eyes widened. The dust-covered memories came to mind one after another. She was frightened and frightened for a while, and she said in horror:

"That person is outside!"

"No need to worry."

The statue comforted him: "Just don't embarrass him. In fact, the catastrophe is coming. I think that man has good methods. If you can devote yourself to him, it may be a way to survive. It's a pity that your affair was broken up by him. Now I’m afraid people will look down on you again, so try not to have contact with them in the future.”

"That is not bad!"

Duanmuyan said no more, put the statue close to her body, and hurried out of Jiang Mansion.

Outside the door of the mansion, Duanmu Yan secretly looked around and saw that Lu Chen was still standing in the distance. Her heart tightened again. She pretended to be calm and ducked into Huajiao. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and touched the statue in her arms. He ordered:

"Go home!"

"Yes, ma'am!"

Bing Jia accepted the promise, lifted up Huajiao, and staggered towards the city lord's palace.

“Smells good~~”

Meng Yao looked away, his brows furrowed, as if he was confused, and then he said:

"Brother, who was that just now?"

"A...well, a woman with strong taste."

"Hehe~~"

Meng Yao covered his mouth and chuckled, then said in a crisp voice:

"Is it the same as Sister Tongxin?"

"It's different!"

Lu Chen laughed dumbly. Tong Shen was his little cat. Although she was a little bolder, she was far from what this woman could compare to.

"Oh~~"

Meng Yao seemed to understand. She leaned her little body against Lu Chen's cheek and pouted:

"Brother, Yaoyao misses Sister Tongxin a little bit."

Among everyone, Meng Yao has the best relationship with Tong Shen. Every time they meet, Tong Shen will prepare countless gifts for her, one after another, all carefully selected and never the same.

"Brother wants it too!"

Lu Chen sighed and walked towards Jiang Mansion. The old servant guarding the door had noticed Lu Chen a long time ago, but seeing that Lu Chen was in good spirits, he didn't dare to disturb him. When he saw him approaching, he said doubtfully:

"This young master, you really want to..."

Lu Chen cupped his hands and said kindly:

"My ancestors were favored by Mr. Jiang. When I heard that Mr. Jiang passed away, I came here to pay my respects."

"That's it, please come in!"

The old servant suddenly realized that Jiang En had been the city lord for more than ten years and was even canonized as [Linjiang Marquis]. He had benefited countless people, including Lu Chen. It was just a little late. However, Jiang Mansion was not as good as before. He didn't dare to ask any more questions and led Lu Shen into Jiang Mansion.

Taking advantage of the old servant's inattention, Lu Chen left the mourning hall and came to the Jiang Family Ancestral Hall.

Meng Yao shrugged her little nose and said doubtfully:

"Brother, there is no incense here."

"Not at all?"

"Hmm~~"

Seeing Meng Yao nodding, Lu Chen suddenly remembered the statue that Duanmu Yan had just taken away, shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's getting late, let's go back first."

"Hmm~~"

Meng Yao didn't care. Anyway, there were already a lot of prayer coins, and it didn't matter if there were less. Now he followed Lu Chen out of Jiang Mansion and returned to the courtyard behind the Flower House. As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the table was already filled with sumptuous dishes. Someone and Niuniu are waiting silently.

“Wow, it smells so good~~”

Then he cheered and ate together with Huniu.

"came back?"

"Um!"

"Is it going well?"

"good!"

Lu Chen smiled, ignored Meng Yao, and pulled the ghost beauty into the room. The ghost beauty looked at the bed aside and said coquettishly:

"Are you going to cause trouble again?"

Lu Chen said nothing, picked up the brush on the table and started to draw. After a while, a crooked statue appeared on the paper. Although the painting was not good-looking, it was generally good. The body of the animal and the human face were all drawn. He put the brush Put it down and asked:

"Can you recognize this guy's feet?"

"This is."

The ghost beauty frowned slightly and thought:

"It's a bit familiar. Let me think about it. Well, I remembered it. This should be a mythical beast called the [Black Beast] recorded in the Mysterious Scriptures. It looks like a dodder, has a human face, can talk, and often deceives others!"

"Sure?"

"It should be right!"

The ghost beauty nodded and said in surprise:

"Why did you paint it?"

Lu Chen didn't hide anything, and briefly explained what happened just now. After hearing this, the ghost beauty said with emotion:

"This Duanmuyan is actually enshrining a statue of a mythical beast? She's really brave."

"What's wrong?"

"You don't know something. Divine beasts have their own magical powers. They have always had great magical powers and boundless power. A long time ago, many people worshiped them and kept them for a long time. The statues of mythical beasts are easy to channel. Because of their hatred, cannibalism often occurs. As time went by, no one gradually stopped worshiping him, and Duanmu Yan was so bold that he dared to worship the black beast."

"So that's it."

Lu Chen suddenly realized that it was hard to say anything.

Worshiping statues is purely personal belief. Of course, if something happens, you have to bear the consequences. But Duanmu Yan is a shrewd woman after all, and she doesn't seem to be the type to commit suicide.

As for why the blackmail beast was enshrined, Lu Chen didn't know, and he had no intention of understanding it.

It comes down to it.

Or the other party's cultivation level is too low, he is just a first-level Qi practitioner, and it is difficult to arouse his interest. Even if it is somewhat secretive, it is of no use to him. It is not worth wasting energy.

If he hadn't met by chance before, he wouldn't have bothered to observe the other person.

He has no plans for the other party.

The two of them walked out of the room and started to eat with Meng Yao. By the time they finished dinner, the sky had darkened. Seeing that the ghostly beauty wanted to return to the flower house, Lu Chen stretched out his hand and grabbed the corner of her skirt:

"Stay here tonight."

"Hmm~~"

The ghost beauty's pretty face glowed slightly, she lowered her head and responded softly. Lu Chen was so excited that he led the ghost beauty towards the bedroom.

"No, no. Don't stop!"

"Woooooo~~"

After teasing the other party for a while, Lu Chen was about to have a big fight.

"no!"

The ghost beauty suddenly woke up, screamed, and hurriedly ran away. Lu Chen, with quick eyes and quick hands, pulled the opponent back and was about to use force. The ghost beauty's hands and feet were dancing wildly and she said in horror:

"Can't!"

Lu Chen stopped and said in surprise:

"what happened?"

The ghostly beauty hugged her knees tightly, huddled in a corner, lowered her head and said nothing. Seeing this, Lu Chen frowned and asked:

"what happened?"

"It just can't be done!"

Lu Chen put his hand on his forehead and stretched out his hand to pull the person over. He stood high and said seriously:

"Speak clearly today, otherwise I won't be able to return to your flower house."

The ghost beauty struggled for a while before she said coquettishly:

"You should know that humans and monsters are different."

"A different path for transvestites?"

"no!"

The ghostly beauty shook her head, and finally slowly let go, explaining:

"I mean, the bodies of humans and demons are different. Fox demons have tails, rabbit demons have ears, and snake demons have scales. Even the blackbird has a few colorful feathers on its head. Then look at me. Apart from the tire mark on his face, is he any different from a human being?"

Lu Chen looked at it carefully.

from head to foot.

From feet to head.

From top to bottom.

From bottom to top.

From left to right.

From right to left.

Over and over again, little by little, Lu Chen frowned and said:

"No difference!"

The ghostly beauty put aside her obsession and said calmly:

"So...my difference is inside my body!"

Lu Chen glanced down and said in shock:

"You mean"

"The inside of my body is completely different from that of ordinary people. I am a beautiful butterfly. If I hadn't been inspired by the empress herself, there would be no chance of me becoming a demon. My lifespan would be only half a month. After becoming a demon, my lifespan will increase greatly. , especially after entering the second level, the life span reaches two hundred and thirteen years, and therefore, a happy gathering will last for three full years, one thousand and ninety-five days and nights."

“Is this so funny???”

Lu Chen was shocked and dumbfounded. The ghost beauty rolled her eyes, dumbfounded, and explained:

"It's not just fun, it's also life-threatening. Any man who falls in love with me can't survive more than three days. Even if you are a second-level body builder, you can survive one day, maybe one month, one year, and so on. If you go down, there will only be one end: death from exhaustion of energy and blood."

"Actually, I can handle it!"

Lu Mo silently corrected the other party's words, not wanting the ghost beauty to look down on him.

After he became a second-level body builder, his control over his body has reached a terrifying level. Otherwise, Su Xiaoxiao would not be so frightened. Even if it lasts for three years, he may not be able to do it. However, if it takes three years They were all lying here, people coming and going without talking, even if they were hungry, they were almost starving to death. He glanced at each other a few more times and muttered:

"Can't I come out on my own?"

The ghostly beauty seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and said firmly:

"You really can't get out, unless you kill me cruelly."

"You can't do that!"

Lu Chen smiled and said without giving up:

"But... it's really interesting."

The ghostly beauty couldn't laugh or cry, and replied charmingly:

"If you are fully prepared in the future, it is up to you to do whatever you want."

"That's pretty much it."

Lu Chen was finally satisfied with the ghost beauty's promise. He glanced at the spotless table beside the bed and raised his eyebrows:

"How about you come and sing and dance."

"good!"

The ghostly beauty couldn't bear to refuse anymore and reached for a piece of clothing, but Lu Chen grabbed it first and threw it away. He smiled and said:

"So fine."

The ghostly beauty blushed with embarrassment, spat lightly, and jumped onto the desk. She danced with her left hand, spraying colorful powder, and moved her right hand away, and a jade fan appeared out of thin air:

"It's as white as snow on the mountain, as bright as the moon among the clouds;"

"Today's drinking party, tomorrow's ditch will flow;"

"It's miserable again and again, there's no need to cry when you get married;"

"Would like to have as one people, old age is not way off!"

"Okay! Okay! How can we not have wine!!"

Lu Chen leaned on the couch and watched, shaking his head. When he got excited, he took out the spirit wine and drank it, sip after sip, jar after jar, and before he knew it, he was drunk again.

The next few days.

The ghost beauty goes out early and comes back late. She is busy inquiring about news all day long. Lu Chen can't sit still either. He is either playing with the golden cicada, studying magical powers, or speeding up his cultivation with the help of Meng Yao's prayers. He is busy every day.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the ghost beauty suddenly returned and said as soon as she entered the door:

"There's news!"

"What?"

Lu Chen suddenly stood up and asked hurriedly:

"what news?"

The ghost beauty took a breath and explained:

"I almost searched the entire Linjiang City with my butterfly powder, but there was no news at all. I went to the ferry today and finally found an old man who lived in the ferry. According to him, he had insomnia one night seven years ago and sat down Watching the river at the ferry, he once saw a large boat approaching in the moonlight, and there seemed to be a woman dancing a sword on the bow, like a fairy coming to the world."

"Yuqi."

Lu Chen's spirit suddenly shook and he asked:

"and after?"

"Later, the big ship sailed to the south and never stopped at the Linjiang City ferry. The old man also told others, but few people believed it. After I verified it, I found that what he said was true."

"Huh~~"

Lu Chen let out a breath, no matter why Fang Yuqi didn't stop at Linjiang City, there was finally news.

The ghostly beauty bit her red lips tightly and said anxiously:

"Are you leaving?"

"now"

Seeing that the other party showed reluctance, Lu Chen hesitated and changed his words:

"Just wait for three more days. I will leave in three days. You should make preparations in advance and explain the affairs of the flower house. I will be back in half a year at most and pick you up with me then."

"Hmm~~"

The ghostly beauty lowered her head, feeling ashamed and happy in her heart.

For the next three days, Lu Chen paused to comprehend Jin Chan's supernatural powers, and took the ghost beauty and Meng Yao around the streets and alleys of Linjiang City, laughing and playing, watching the sunrise and sunset, and watching the rising tide. , I felt so uncomfortable and followed my heart, and then I was amidst the ghost beauty's various reluctances.

Set up a purple jade flying boat and go down the river.

At the ferry, the ghostly beauty watched the flying boat go away, and still refused to look back until it was completely gone.

There were two people standing beside her.

One was Thrush, and the other was Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her red lips that had just subsided, but there was still a slight pain, and she gloated:

"Sister, you are so infatuated, but someone leaves you for another woman, how can you not be heartbroken?"

"You do not understand!"

The ghost beauty shook her head and said softly:

"It is precisely because my husband has been pursuing other women for thousands of miles that I am convinced that I have found the right person. Otherwise, how could I know that he would not abandon me forever? Don't you know that if our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together in court?" Twilight?”

"Sister, your soul has been taken away by him!!"

Su Xiaoxiao was so angry that she stomped on the ground a few times and left angrily.

"Hehe~~"

The thrush chuckled and said with envy:

"Congratulations to my sister for finally finding her husband. Even people like my empress admire him with admiration and welcome him personally. This shows that he is a heroic figure. For my sister to be protected by this man, the realm of the Great Demon is not yet within reach. It's a pity. It's a pity that Mr. Lang doesn't like Huamei."

The thrush looked down at himself, then said dejectedly:

"Sister, do you think the thrush is too small?"

"Pfft~~"

The ghostly beauty laughed out loud. The birthmarks on her face had long been removed. She was as beautiful as a fairy. She touched the thrush's forehead with her delicate hand and said with a smile:

"You, you, always make my sister happy."

"Hehe~~"

The thrush stuck out its little tongue, flaunted three colorful feathers on its head, and rolled its big eyes:

"How about taking my sister with me when she leaves?"

"."

The purple jade flying boat went all the way south, and two green snakes, which were almost as thick as arms, swam in the water. Just after traveling for fifty miles, they caught up with a small boat that was also heading south. The small boat was five meters long, and a man in green was standing there. Standing on the bow of the boat, all alone, I looked particularly lost.

[Name]: Duanmuying

[Information]: Second Realm Magical Immortal Master

"It turned out to be him."

Lu Chen was thoughtful and muttered:

"It's lucky that he didn't die."

"What are you looking at!"

If Duan Muying realized something, he turned around and glared at Lu Chen angrily. After being kicked out, he was full of anger. He didn't like anyone at this time, and he naturally didn't have a good look towards Lu Chen.

"."

Lu Chen shook his head and laughed, too lazy to pay attention to the other party. The flying boat accelerated under his feet and was about to pass by. Duan Muying, who had always been proud and arrogant, did not intend to give way and suddenly waved his sleeves.

"Huhuhu~~"

The cuffs of the sleeves were blown by the strong wind, and they hit the purple jade flying boat directly.
