SWDnovel Chapter 163 Stone Town, Female Ghost On The Mountain
Chapter 163 Stone Town, Female Ghost On The Mountain
Stone Town, with a population of 30,000, is mainly engaged in ore collection. The town is connected to the official road and can directly reach the prosperous city.
A small boat fell from the sky without attracting the attention of many townspeople.
There are quite a few monks passing through Stone Town. The townspeople are not surprised by this, and some families in the town have also become immortal cultivators.
Chen Changsheng and Miaomiao showed up on the Foundation Building Stage, and True Qi's sense of oppression caused the surrounding monks to pull away slightly.
The Foundation Building monks in the town are less than the number of hands, so the master and apprentice can walk sideways here.
"The food at this inn is delicious enough. Master, let's go here!" Miaomiao ignored the gazes of others and pointed to the most luxurious inn in the town like a child.
Chen Changsheng smiled and nodded: "It smells like firewood, so this is the one."
When the two walked into the inn, they were greeted by the lively noise and heat waves, and the rich aroma of vegetables made people salivate.
"Master Immortal, you must be careful. The female ghost on the mountain is quite powerful. I have already found three groups of immortal cultivators, but none of them have been spared!"
A white-haired old man said to a Foundation Building monk with a sad face.
The young man from Foundation Building had a frivolous expression and chuckled proudly: "Don't worry, it's just a ghost in the mountain. Those people before were not good enough. If my guess is right, the ghost in the mountain should be the Foundation Building Stage, so you just go up to the Qi Refining Stage." Die."
"this……"
The white-haired old man hesitated for a moment and reminded: "No matter what, please be extremely careful, Immortal Chief."
"That female ghost is originally a mortal woman in the town. Logically speaking, after turning into a powerful ghost, the Qi Refining monk can easily take her down."
"As a result, the Qi Refining Stage we invited was completely wiped out. I think that the female ghost must have had an opportunity to become so powerful."
The old man reminded him kindly, but the young monk waved his hand disapprovingly.
"Okay, I don't blame you for being ignorant. Prepare your rewards and wait for my return."
With a confident smile on his face, the young man passed by Chen Changsheng.
The old man frowned and wanted to remind him again, but he swallowed the words and finally sighed heavily.
Chen Changsheng looked at the old man and the surrounding customers, and Miaomiao ordered a bunch of signature dishes from the waiter, as well as a bottle of local wine.
"Xiao Er, what's going on with the female ghost the old man mentioned?" Chen Changsheng asked curiously, with the expression of a crowd eating melon.
The waiter glanced at the white-haired old man and replied: "That one is the mayor of our Stone Town. The devil on the mountain is originally a woman from Stone Town. Who ever wanted to kill her husband on the night of the wedding, and then accidentally escaped to the mountain?" If you fall to death, you will turn into a ghost and haunt you."
This matter was well-known in Stone Town, so the waiter did not cover up his voice and was not worried that the mayor would be unhappy when he heard it.
"Killed your husband on the night of your wedding? Can anyone prove it?" Chen Changsheng asked again.
"Of course!" The waiter slapped his thigh and glanced at the mayor again: "It was the mayor's son who broke the news that night and witnessed with his own eyes the whole process of a woman killing her husband!"
"Why did she kill her husband, and why did she kill him on the wedding night?"
"Hey! What does this Immortal Chief mean by this?!"
At this moment, the white-haired old man stood up angrily: "You don't mean to suspect Zhuang'er of lying, right? My Zhuang'er is upright, kind-hearted, and helpful. Every household in the town knows that he can't lie. !”
"That night Zhuang'er attended that woman's wedding banquet. He drank too much and entered the wrong room. He happened to stumble upon the murder case. How come you have become a target of suspicion?"
The old man was very excited and attracted the attention of many customers.
Chen Changsheng said calmly: "I didn't say that, why are you so excited? Is there really something hidden?"
To be honest, he really didn't think much about it and just asked casually. After all, the waiter's description was too one-sided, and he was particularly curious about the specific process.
Unexpectedly, the mayor said it casually, as if he had been stepped on the tail of a cat.
It's really suspicious...
The waiter hurriedly smoothed things over: "My guest has a misunderstanding. It's just that among the many immortals passing by, some of them had doubts about Mr. Yan, so the mayor is a little sensitive. In fact, it's all a misunderstanding."
The interrupted mayor sat back down.
"I, Zhuang'er, wholeheartedly serve the people, but after hearing the story, the monks who passed by Stone Town said that he was suspicious. As his father, how could I not be excited?"
The old man paused for a moment and said in a gentle tone: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Immortal, I was rude just now. I will pay for this meal."
Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "Okay, I accept your apology."
The topic of women killing their husbands ended here. He did not ask for follow-up questions, and the waiter had no intention of bringing up this topic again.
The mayor sat quietly in the inn, waiting for the Foundation Building young man to return.
The sun sets and dusk passes.
The number of customers in the inn changed one after another.
Until the evening, the young man from the Foundation Building did not come back. The mayor finally couldn't sit still, and his expression became more and more uneasy.
If you can't get rid of the female ghosts on the mountain during the day, let alone at night when the Yin Qi is strong.
Chen Changsheng and Miaomiao didn't leave either. The two of them were eating and drinking in the inn. If it weren't for their spotless fairy temperament, they would definitely be regarded as country people who have never seen the world.
Other immortal cultivators are either personable and approachable, or they are cold, capable, and resolute in their actions. Anyway, their words and deeds are always different from ordinary people, making people confused.
But Chen Changsheng didn't have the demeanor of a cultivator at all. He wolfed down food without any image at all, and he also had a great time playing dice and drinking wine in the crowd.
The most regrettable thing was the beautiful female apprentice who followed him, obediently watching the whole process.
When the master exclaimed in ecstasy, she followed him in ecstasy. When the master frowned and sighed, she also frowned slightly.
What a good girl, but she followed such an unreliable master...
Many customers sighed and shook their heads, beating their chests secretly. If they had a female apprentice with such good looks and such obedience, they would definitely love her dearly every day!
After the evening entertainment ended, the people in the town left the inn one after another, leaving only a few passing monks who rented rooms in the inn.
The mayor was still sitting on the first floor of the inn, looking at the darkness outside the door, the loss in his eyes particularly obvious.
"He probably died on the mountain again. I have warned you to be more careful, but all the monks look down on the ghosts on the mountain. They are all pretentious."
The mayor sighed helplessly, looked at Chen Changsheng, with hope in his eyes, and asked: "Is the immortal going to try to go up the mountain to destroy ghosts? Stone Town has raised a reward of three thousand Spirit Stones."
Chen Changsheng smiled when he heard this: "Three thousand Spirit Stones? Are you sending beggars away?"
"Then how much reward does the Immortal Master need before he is willing to take action?"
"I don't want payment, I just want to know the full story."
