Chapter 160: Jiguan Cave Occupied by Demons
The official ship sailed out of the capital, and there was less bustling and bustling, more tranquility and peace, and the strange beauty of nature. Luo Li stood by the side of the ship, admiring the picturesque scenery on both sides!
The King of Qin came to the side of the princess and looked at her hair which was a little messy due to the river breeze. He couldn't help but raise his hand to smooth it for her.
Luo Li stepped back in a hurry, her beautiful eyes glaring! "What are you doing? Seeing that I'm away from my parents and out, do you want to take advantage of me and molest me?
I tell you, you scoundrel, if you dare to act like a hooligan to me, I will leave your body outside and only your soul can return to the Qin Palace in the capital!"
The princess's threat was a bit fierce, but also a bit of naughty and coquettish. The King of Qin put down his hand with a smile in his heart, "Even if I am left with only my soul, I will follow you and be a dog to boot."
Luo Li was so frightened that she felt a chill on her back.
"Qin Licking Dog! Please stop scaring me, okay? I'm a delicate young lady, and I don't want to experience the feeling of being haunted by a ghost!"
The King of Qin looked at Luo Li with deep affection, "Okay! Then I will try my best to save my life, and live a long life with you, Li'er."
Luo Li's heart was stirred by the teasing! She quickly shifted her sight and looked at the mountains on the distant shore, her heart beating wildly.
[Can you do this? King Qin, can you really save your life and live a long life? If so, this lady...
Alas! My heart has been disturbed by this cunning and sinister man again. 】
Luo Li, whose heart was disturbed by the King of Qin, dared not face the affectionate eyes on that handsome face again.
As Hong Gu and Si Yu were laughing secretly, she forced herself to spit at the shameless man, then hid back in the cabin with a hot face and a pounding heart. She was overwhelmed by the tangled worries and the irresistible sweet temptation again.
Whenever the official ship reached a scenic spot, the King of Qin ordered the ship to stop. Under the protection of the shadow guards, he took the princess to the shore to enjoy the beautiful scenery and have fun.
It seemed as if he had completely forgotten that he was an imperial envoy who was ordered to go to Jiangnan to investigate a case, but rather an idle prince who had made a special trip to travel with his beloved concubine.
Once you arrive in Luoyang, of course you have to visit Laojun Mountain, where the beautiful scenery of the 800-li Funiu Mountain is concentrated.
Ghost Hand Poison Doctor and Shen Xi met each other through fighting, and they became close friends. Every day, they would either sit in the cabin and chat happily, or go ashore together to play.
Shen Xi felt a little reserved around the Qin Prince's Consort, a woman of noble status, so the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor accompanied him on the outing alone.
The King of Qin brought Yun Yi and a dozen shadow guards to protect the princess and others, dressed up as a rich young man traveling with his family. After the group landed, they rode their horses excitedly to Laojun Mountain.
After leaving the capital, Luo Li realized that although the economy of the Song Dynasty was extremely prosperous, hundreds of miles outside the wealthy capital, ordinary people were still struggling to survive in poverty.
There are low adobe houses or leaky thatched houses everywhere, and the blue brick and tile houses of the rich are conspicuous and eye-catching like a crane among chickens.
Most of the pedestrians on the road and farmers working in the fields were wearing cheap linen clothes, with patches on top of patches.
In this era, being able to eat and dress warmly and not freeze to death is the happy life of the lower class people.
The area around Laojun Mountain was much more prosperous. There were more and more rich people wearing silk and satin and with rosy faces. Restaurants and shops lined the main road, and the scene was thriving.
Laojun Mountain is the place where Laozi Li Er, the founder of Taoism, practiced in seclusion. It is revered as a Taoist holy land and a mountain of immortals. There are many peaks, Taoist temples, strange waterfalls and beautiful scenery!
After leaving the capital, Siyu and Yuli, two frogs in the well, had their eyes broadened! Hong Gu had been in the underworld for many years and had seen some worldly people.
Yuli was excited every time she came across a scenic spot along the way, and she would express her feelings to her heart's content using the interjections she learned from the young lady.
When visiting the Taoist temples in Laojun Mountain, Yuli was probably afraid of being blamed by the gods, so she kept her mouth shut and only used the sparkling eyes to vent her inexpressible passion.
After visiting these majestic Taoist temples, the guide took them to see the waterfalls.
With green shades and gurgling water, one can imagine that even in the hot summer, this place will be a cool picture.
There was a deafening sound like thunder, and the waterfall that came into view was hanging high on the mountain wall, like a piece of white satin falling from the mountain. It was so beautiful and spectacular that it was shocking!
Yuli's eyes were wide open and she couldn't close her mouth!
: "Wow! Oh my god! It's so beautiful! Oh my! Oh my! Muah! Muah! Muah!..."
Siyu moved away from Yuli with disgust and hid beside Brother Yunyi, fearing that she would be implicated by Yuli. Other tourists also treated her like a lunatic.
Luo Li amusedly pulled Yu Li, who was jumping up and down madly to vent her passion.
: "Yuli, can you please forget all these interjections? What are you kissing when you say muah muah muah muah?"
Yuli's face flushed, and she patted her chest with a look of unsatisfied feeling, "Miss, the passion in my heart is really beyond words. These interjections you created are really damn useful!
After venting, my excited mood became much more relaxed and calm.
How could I forget such a good thing? When I kissed the waterfall, I seemed to be able to taste the sweet water, and my heart was filled with sweetness. "
Luo Li helplessly glared at the child who had been led astray by her.
When she turned around, she saw King Qin looking at her with a smile on his face. She finally found someone to vent her anger on.
"What are you looking at? Are you making fun of my Yuli or me?"
"Madam, how could your husband laugh at you? Li'er, you are so lively, bright, beautiful, naughty, and such a lovely and interesting soul. Your husband likes you very much!"
Luo Li's heart was in a state of panic again! Her heartstrings were touched again, and her cheeks were flushed.
[Alas! This shameless guy doesn't care about who's around and who's not. He teases me whenever he gets the chance, making my heart flutter! ]
Luo Li concealed her panic and turned her beautiful eyes away, seeing that Si Yu was almost sticking to Yun Yi.
She was so angry that she immediately shouted angrily: "Yun Yi! I'm not riding on a horse and asking you to protect me. Stay away from my Siyu!"
Yun Yi, who was enjoying the spring breeze with the beauty beside him, was startled!
Siyu blushed and took a few steps back, stammering to defend Brother Yunyi, "Miss, don't blame Brother Yun. I hid next to him because I wanted to stay away from that crazy little Yuli."
Before Luo Li could even open her mouth to teach Siyu a lesson, Yuli refused to stand for it!
Her little face was full of innocence and grievance, "Sister Siyu, why do you say I'm a little crazy? I just kissed the waterfall twice, and I didn't kiss your big brother Yunyi!"
Everyone was amused by Yu Li, who still had a childlike innocence, and couldn't help laughing. Even Hong Gu, who didn't like to laugh, was amused by her beloved disciple. Luo Li also laughed so hard that her shoulders swayed and her body trembled!
How can life be so interesting when I have these silly maids who I have led astray and spoiled?
The natural beauty is so stunning that you will never want to leave.
On the way back, Luo Li remembered that her college roommate had said that there was a famous scenic spot called Jiguan Cave here. She said with great interest, "Let's take a rest tonight, and tomorrow we will go to Jiguan Cave to enjoy the unique scenery!"
The old guide, who was about fifty years old, looked at Luo Li as if she was a fool.
Bowing! "My dear, you must not go to Jiguan Cave!"
"Why can't I go?" King Qin asked calmly.
“My dear friends, you may not know that this Jiguan Cave may be occupied by some immortal who is practicing.
In recent years, no one who went to Jiguan Cave has ever returned! Bones often appear nearby, and about 20 to 30 villagers have disappeared. No one dares to step into the 10-mile radius of Jiguan Cave. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it is not as important as your life!"
"Such a bizarre incident, the government doesn't care? Why don't they send people to investigate and eliminate it?"
“This young man takes the government too seriously.
The county magistrate also sent constables to investigate, but they could not find the entrance to Jiguana Cave.
I heard that the two groups of people sent there all died of sudden illness after returning, and no medicine could cure them! This Jiguan Cave has become a forbidden area. "The old guide explained in detail with horror on his face.
"Father-in-law, how long has this Jiguana Cave you mentioned been haunted?" Luo Li asked curiously.
"My dear gentleman, be careful with your words and do not mention ghosts, lest the immortal who occupies the cave be displeased and punish you.
Jiguan Cave has been occupied by the immortal for almost three years. There is fog around it. Every July 15th, the Ghost Festival and the Double Ninth Festival, a blood mist will appear in the sky.
The King of Qin pondered for a moment and said, "There are still a few days until the Double Ninth Festival, so we can't delay too long.
Yun Yi, remember to send someone to check on the way back. If there really are demons and monsters harming the people here, just wipe them out!"
Yun Yi bowed and accepted the order!
The old guide looked at the King of Qin in surprise and asked bravely, "Sir, are you going to send someone to get rid of this demon that is harming the people?" In his excitement, he even forgot to call him the immortal.
The King of Qin nodded and said, "I don't care what kind of evildoer he is. Now that I have met him, I will eliminate him for the people!"
The old guide bowed deeply with an excited expression, his face full of wrinkles filled with gratitude.
"Sir, if you can really accomplish this, I, on behalf of the elders and villagers within a hundred miles, would like to thank you for your great kindness!"
"Don't be polite, old man. This is my duty."
The old guide couldn't guess the origin and identity of this noble young man. But he should be a powerful noble who could mobilize the troops of the state, right?
If we can really get rid of the monster in Jiguan Cave that is harming the people around, it would be great to restore peace and tranquility to this place. Judging from the behavior of this noble man, he should have the ability to do so. I can't help but feel full of hope, and my steps seem to be much lighter. ...
At this moment, in the deep Jiguana Cave, an old man who was sitting cross-legged on a jade couch, skinny and ghost-like, suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed!
A small animal with pure white fur was squeaking excitedly at his feet.
"Wuwei Wunian, Lingli sensed an extremely pure aura of the Black Phoenix body. You two take Lingli with you and quickly track her whereabouts. Be sure to bring her back to me!"
Two ghostly figures in black appeared and knelt down to receive orders!
"Wuwei and Wunian will obey the orders of the cave master!"
