Chapter 124 Ghost
That night, Kong Ning drank a lot of wine.
Drunk.
After returning to his home in Huaishu Lane, he fell asleep and slept until it was three in the morning when Wan'er came to wake him up.
Practitioners generally don't get drunk unless they want to.
After waking up, Kong Ning's demonic power circulated slightly, the alcohol in his body was instantly emptied, and his whole body became refreshed.
Looking at the girl in front of him, Kong Ning smiled and said: "Where is Caiwei? She is not afraid that we will leave her behind?"
Last night, Kong Ning went to Chunfeng Building to get together with his colleagues, while Wan'er accompanied Caiwei to the Xu Mansion to say goodbye to Caiwei's relatives.
Before leaving, Kong Ning also specifically asked the girl to pay attention to how she eats when the time comes, so that she don't gobble up the delicious food and lose all her image.
I don't know if Wan'er listened.
Kongning and the others are leaving Shanlan County today.
Caiwei, on the other hand, stayed in the Xu Mansion to say goodbye to her grandparents for the last time.
Although this little girl must follow Kong Ning and the others, it can be seen that she misses her grandparents and relatives in the Xu family very much and cannot let go.
Wan'er came over early to wake up Kong Ning, and told Caiwei to reunite with her relatives and meet at the city gate in the north of the city.
As for Kong Ning, there are not many things that need to be prepared.
After carrying a burden and packing two sets of change of clothes, they left Huaishu Alley with Wan'er.
As for the scabbard of the Soul-Suppressing Sword, it has been completely refined by Kong Ning and incorporated into the dantian, so there is no need to drag a two-meter-long scabbard along the way.
Although the city god ghost's obsession was deeply rooted, under the wash of Kong Ning's four hundred and ten years of dao xing demon power, he didn't persist for long, and was directly washed away and wiped out.
Now this spirit-suppressing sword is all used by Kong Ning.
The two came to the gate tower in the north of the city and looked back at the small county behind them.
Under the noon sun, the county town is quiet and peaceful, and the villagers in the streets and alleys live and work in peace and contentment.
This small county town, which has been enslaved and raised by demons for more than ten years, has finally escaped from the sea of suffering.
It's just that such a stable life, I don't know how long it will last.
In this sinister world where demons are rampant, even if a demon passes by Shanlan tomorrow, it is not impossible to harm these villagers again...
As for Wan'er and Kong Ning, they will part ways in the future.
The girl wanted to go back to the mountain to look through the sect's classics, to see what the magic lines on the corpse of the scorpion spirit meant.
By the way, you also need to meditate in the mountains and break through to the air refining realm before coming out.
Although Kong Ning felt that it would be better for Wan'er to come out of the mountain after her cultivation had reached a high level, the girl said that if she blindly retreated and practiced hard, she would not be able to reach a high level at all.
The practice of Xuantian Sword Sect is very special. The Tianjian Jue is unparalleled in determination. Even with the help of the Heaven and Earth Great Returning Pill, it still needs the world of mortals to refine their minds, fight with demons, and constantly feel the changes in the sword's intentions in the fighting method in order to practice the Tianjian Jue. higher level.
Therefore, young girls are destined to be born and enter the world continuously. Blindly hiding in the mountains and cultivating hard will soon encounter a bottleneck.
Now the two are standing on the top of the city gate, looking at the residents in the city.
The girl said suddenly.
"Ning Botou, do we really ignore these mortals?" Wan'er's expression was a little worried.
"If monsters come to Shanlan County after we leave, they will be miserable."
The girl obviously couldn't let go of this place.
After all, this girl who was born in a small mountain village lost everything when she was young, and strayed into the inheritance of Xuantian Sword Sect, and practiced hard in the mountains alone for many years.
The first time I went out of the mountain after I became sensible, I came to Shanlan County, a small and remote county.
After killing the demon, the residents in the city are simple and grateful, and they are very enthusiastic about the girl.
Almost a meal of deliciousness.
Girls have fallen in love with this place.
But Kong Ning looked at her, shook his head, and said, "Give me a very simple example."
"If you're just learning to swim, you can barely float in the water without falling. But at this moment, you see a person drowning not far away."
"The man couldn't swim, was struggling desperately, and had already drank a lot of water."
"If no one comes to save you, this drowning person will soon die in front of you, miserable and pitiful."
"But I just learned to swim, and I can't swim well by myself. If I try to save someone, I will only be dragged by the drowning person, sinking into the water and drowning together... So are you going to save them or not?"
Kong Ning's question made Wan'er startled slightly.
She looked at the small county in front of her, and then at her hands.
After a long silence, the girl slightly clenched her fists and said firmly: "I will practice swimming hard until I can save people. Until all those who drown in front of me will not be drowned by the water!"
Under the sun, the girl's answer was firm and confident.
Kong Ning looked at her, laughed, nodded and said: "I also think the same."
"If you are poor, you will be good for yourself, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. This is a kind of wisdom."
Kong Ning did not go into detail.
But Wan'er already understood what he meant, and said: "Ning Butou, this time I go back to the mountains, I will definitely break through to the refining space as soon as possible, and then go to Hejian Mansion to help you."
Kong Ning sighed and said: "The world is dangerous, and I don't know what's going on outside. There are so many monsters entrenched in the small Shanlan County, the situation in Hejian Mansion is probably even worse."
"I can only investigate the situation first, and then plan to follow up after you leave the mountain."
This was Kong Ning's original plan.
But Wan'er comforted her: "Ning catches the head, there is no need to worry too much. Although the world is dangerous, monsters may not be everywhere."
"It's only been about twenty years since they destroyed the righteous way and occupied the power of the world."
"The demons and ghosts who have become fine are rare. Since the dynasty and order of mortals can barely be maintained, it proves that the demons have not yet been arrogant to the point of unscrupulousness."
"The demons in Hejian Mansion may not be so many that they are everywhere..."
The girl comforted Kong Ning, but in the end, she couldn't even convince herself.
The two looked at each other, were silent for a long time, and finally sighed at the same time.
Upstairs at the city gate, they waited for the picking weed personally sent by the master of Xu's mansion, and with the guide issued by the yamen, Kong Ning finally took a deep breath and left the small county where he had lived for eleven years.
Parted with Wan'er outside the city.
One of them took the young boy to Hejian Mansion, and the other went back to the mountains, and they left.
In the cool mountain wind in late August, the figures of the two gradually drifted away.
In the county town, Yu Shusheng, the owner of Dianyu Bookstore, woke up from his nap with a yawn.
However, after getting up, he found that the box of forbidden books hidden under the cabinet was gone.
Yu Shusheng was stunned for a moment, and instantly lost sleepiness.
"Where's my book!"
He frantically rummaged through the bookstore, extremely anxious.
That box of banned books, but he paid a lot of money to get in. I was returned by Kong Ning last night, and I am very happy.
How could it be gone in a blink of an eye!
Yu Shusheng, who was searching for nothing, was extremely anxious. However, after asking all over the neighbors, they all said that no one entered his bookstore when he was sleeping, and it was impossible for someone to steal books.
So why is his box of books missing?
It's impossible to be stolen by a ghost!
