    "I asked my elder brother, this little girl is eighteen years old and is waiting to be married." The girl smiled charmingly and answered cheerfully.

    Mo Wen nodded slowly when he heard this. It seemed that Lao Wu was about to become a concubine.

    "Oh, go and see if the food is ready. Serve it when it's ready." Lao Wu waved his hand to the girl.

    The girl agreed, turned and left.

    After the girl left, Mo Wen looked sideways at Lao Wu, who curled his lips and said, "I didn't expect she was a little widow."

    Mo Wen smiled when he heard this and said, "It's about the word, not the belt. The word in the boudoir means that the birth date has not been handed over to the matchmaker."

    Hearing this, Lao Wu was speechless and immediately beamed with joy, "Master, can I have this girl?"

    "Why not?" As he spoke, Mo Wen began to concentrate on sensing the surrounding aura. If Lao Wu wanted to marry this woman, he would have to help the people here to quell the demons.  After sensing it, I discovered that there are two monsters here. One is in the north of the town, and it should be a snake.  One is a wolf in the mountains west of Zhenxi.  Neither of them has much practice, and within three to five hundred years, they may not even be able to transform into human bodies.

    "That's good, that's good." Lao Wu nodded happily, Mo Wen's eyes were as sharp as a torch, and he could see accurately, so if he said it was possible, it would definitely be possible.

    While the two were talking, the shopkeeper and his family brought meat and noodles. Lao Wu kept half of the meat and gave the other half to the shopkeeper and his family. The latter felt very sorry and thanked him repeatedly.

    When the two arrived, the owner and his family were having dinner. The five hosts and guests were divided into two tables to eat separately. While eating, Lao Wu turned his head to peek at the woman from time to time. Seeing that the woman was neither coquettish nor greedy when eating, he felt very happy in his heart.  Like it more and more.

    After dinner, Mo Wen called the middle-aged shopkeeper to speak. The mother and daughter cleared the table and went to the inner room.

    "I wonder where you two are in your treasure town?" The middle-aged shopkeeper is a man of age and knowledge, and Lao Wu's actions cannot escape his eyes.

    "I asked the good man, our ancestral home is Xiyang County, Yu County. Do you know your surname?" Mo Wen smiled and answered. Since the shop owner asked about our ancestral home, he was naturally considering the possibility of marriage.

    "I can't afford to be expensive. My surname is Zhao. How did you two get here?" the middle-aged shop owner asked again.

    "My master and I are going to the East China Sea to return something. What's going on with the monsters here?" Lao Wu was the first to answer and ask.

    "Can Taoist priests really subdue demons?" The shopkeeper did not answer Lao Wu's question and turned to look at Mo Wen.

    "I am a poor man from the Qing Dynasty who has some knowledge of the mystic arts." Mo Wen smiled when he heard this. Since Lao Wu wants to marry someone else's girl, the other party will know their origins sooner or later.

    "Oh." The shop owner looked puzzled, obviously he had never heard this number before.

    "My master was the one who took back your Bai County." Lao Wu was a little anxious when he saw that the other party was ignorant of Taishan.

    "Isn't it the real person Sandalwood who regained Baijun?" the shop owner asked in astonishment.

    "Tanmuzi is my master's assistant." Lao Wu explained.

    The shop owner was stunned for a moment when he heard this. After a moment, he suddenly realized it and left his seat in shock. He stared in shock and asked, "Are you the real protector of the country?"

    Seeing that the other party knew not to ask for his reputation, Lao Wu was relieved, "It happened in the past. My master has stopped serving him now. Let's talk about what happened to the goblin."

    "Caomin Zhao Er, salute your Excellency." The shop owner was about to kneel down tremblingly.

    "I have no official position anymore, so there is no need for this," Mo Wen raised his hand and extended his spiritual energy to support her, "My brother is very fond of your daughter. If a good person agrees, we will inevitably become in-laws in the future."

    Seeing Mo Wen¡¯s miraculous move, the owner of Zhao¡¯s shop wiped away the remaining suspicion in his heart, and was replaced by incomparable shock. Mo Wen¡¯s name was so famous that in the hearts of ordinary people, he was on equal footing with the emperor.

    People who open the door to do business always respond faster than ordinary farmers. After a while, the shopkeeper responded, cupped his hands and said, "Master Cheng thinks highly of us, so we are naturally willing to do so. It's just that it's too high and we're afraid."

    "Dad, don't be afraid, our master has no airs. Sit down quickly and let's talk about what's going on with the goblin." When Lao Wu saw that the shop owner agreed to the marriage, he smiled happily and pulled the shop owner to sit down.

    Mo Wen smiled again when he heard the sound, this dad recognized him really quickly.

    ¡°I wonder who my good son-in-law¡¯s last name is and what his horoscope is?¡± The shopkeeper sat down and forgot about the goblin.

    Mo Wen, who was listening in the audience, couldn't help but laugh or cry. The old man, the young man, and the young man were all eager to get married.

    The reason why Lao Wu is anxious is that Zhao Yingying is beautiful and graceful, and she is very generous in dealing with others.  Shopkeeper Zhao is also anxious, because in troubled times, Mo Wen and Lao Wu can rely on the big trees to ensure peace and prosperity, and his daughter will never suffer.

    In less than half an hour, the two sides understood the eight characters, and the Taoist priestAs a matchmaker, Mo asked to witness the marriage. Lao Wu paid a betrothal gift of one hundred taels of gold on his own. The girl named Zhao Yingying gave Lao Wu a hairpin, and the two parties were married.

    People are in high spirits during happy events. After the marriage was arranged, Lao Wu was inexplicably excited, "Dad, what is going on with this monster? Tell me, I will go and slay it tonight."

    "My dear son-in-law, don't worry, it's getting late today, it's not too late to talk tomorrow." The shop owner was very excited and eager to go back to his room to calm down his excitement.

    "There is a snake demon in the north of the town, and there is a gray wolf that turned into a spirit in the mountains to the west of the town. I wonder which one is causing harm to the village?" Mo Wen asked casually, Lao Wu must be given something to do tonight, otherwise he will cause trouble.

    "What? There are monsters in the west and north of town?" Shopkeeper Zhao was shocked.

    "It's not those two monsters that are causing harm?" Mo Wen asked doubtfully.

    "No, no, if it hadn't been for what the master said, I wouldn't have known there were two monsters around the town. The monster that caused harm did not come from the mountains, but from the sea." Shopkeeper Zhao raised his hand and pointed eastward.

    "It doesn't matter whether it's from the mountains or the sea, Dad, please tell me what's going on?" Lao Wu urged.

    The shop owner couldn't bear the urging, so he told the whole story. It happened on a rainy night half a year ago, at the second watch, when a huge strange fish fell from the sky and crushed several houses in the west of the town. Villagers  Startled, they gathered around and saw that it was a strange fish that no one had ever seen before. It was three feet long, with a flat and round body, two wings on its back, red scales all over its body, green eyes and a yellow tail.

    The strange fish had several large wounds on its body and was already dying when it landed. People at the beach were in awe of this huge fish, so they gathered people to tie ropes and carried it to the beach, trying to release it back into the sea.

    But the strange fish was too seriously injured and eventually died on the beach.  In the early morning of the next day, the villagers discussed burying the dead fish nearby and setting up a temple to offer sacrifices.

    Seven or eight days later, just when everyone was gradually forgetting the incident, something unexpected happened. It was a full moon night and there was a strong tide. Some people in the town went to the beach to pick up sea creatures. Unexpectedly, they found an armored creature the size of a house.  The monster was destroying the ancestral hall built on the seaside. When the villagers saw this, they all ran away in panic. Some brave people peeked from a distance and found that the monster that looked like a crab and a turtle dug up the rotten fish under the ancestral hall.  He was taken out, disembowelled, and cut into pieces.

    Those who peeped from a distance saw the bloody scene, no longer dared to peek from a distance, and fled back in embarrassment.

    During the day the next day, the villagers went to the beach together, and saw that the monster had dug out a huge pit about ten feet deep in the sand pit where the big fish had been buried. The dead fish had been completely torn apart by the monster, and its flesh and bones had been completely torn apart.  The scales were scattered on the beach within a radius of two miles, and the stench was overwhelming and nauseating.

    This time, the villagers no longer dare to bury the carrion. Yesterday, the monster cut the big fish into corpses, undoubtedly venting its anger. Mortals dare not participate in the grudges between monsters.

    Unexpectedly, before the matter was understood, that evening, a bearded man wearing a green robe came to the town. Holding in his hand a piece of rope used by the villagers to carry the strange fish, he asked around who had buried the strange fish, and finally let him know.  He found a villager who participated in carrying the strange fish that day. The man with a beard was very vicious. He asked more than a dozen villagers who had participated in the delivery of the strange fish that day, and asked who took the things from the strange fish that day. Everyone  Without knowing it, he got angry and beat everyone. This man was very capable, and more than ten people were no match for him.

    But everyone really did not take anything from the strange fish, so they had no choice but to take it to the house where the strange fish landed that day. The man with the beard was so energetic that he knocked down the house that the owner had just repaired, demolished the walls, and dug holes.  Land, search carefully.

    In the end, the big man failed to find what he wanted, so he asked again who else had carried the strange fish that day. At this time, most of the men who participated had heard the news and ran away, and the big man with the curly beard made a fuss.  In the middle of the night, I finally left with regret, saying before I left that I would come again.

    After the man left, everyone discussed privately that the man was tall, strange-looking, and had a strong smell on his body. He must be the phantom of the sea monster that dug up the carcass of the big fish that day. For fear that the monster would come again and cause harm, the villagers pooled their money to invite him.  Several Taoists from Kunyu Mountain came to take charge.

    "I never thought that the bearded man never came back after he left. A few days later, several Taoists couldn't wait for the monsters, so they casually held a ritual ceremony, took rice, thanked the money, and went back to the mountain.

    Who knows that this matter is not over yet. On the night of the full moon, the bearded man came again and asked everyone if they had taken the things around the big fish. They didn't even know what he was looking for, so how could they give him a satisfactory answer?  , but the result was that he was still beaten. The big man with the beard was extremely powerful. When the officials came to fetch him, he not only drove away the servants, but also went to Xiangyue's house to make a big fuss. Before leaving, he said that he would come again next month.  .

    After two rounds, everyone was convinced that this person wasHe was a monster, and he found out that this person came with the tide. Every time he came, he would stay for a day or two, and he would never stay long.

    After figuring out the monster's activities, the villagers began to make preparations. In the middle of the next month, they invited five or six Taoist priests, and the government sent more than a hundred officers and soldiers. In the evening, the monster came as expected, and the Taoist priest drew a charm and thought  He wanted to take it, but the paper-talisman sword was of no use to the demon. Instead, it angered it. The Taoist priests were pulled by their buns and beaten up. The officers and soldiers rushed forward, slashing and stabbing the demon with swords and spears.  Unable to stand it any longer, he revealed his true form. The result was not a giant tortoise or a giant crab as everyone had guessed, but a giant blue horseshoe crab with nine spines on its tail.

    The demon showed its true form and was invulnerable. The officers and soldiers were no match for it and were killed by it. Before leaving, the giant horseshoe threatened the commander of the army, saying that if anyone escaped from the people here, they would kill the government officials and take the government.  Official life.

    Seeing that the monster was so powerful, the government turned around and blamed the townspeople for stealing Poseidon's things. While looking for people to be tortured to extract confessions, they ordered people to search harder, but no one even knew what the monster was looking for.  Able to find also with it.

    Last month, the monster came again, furious. Before leaving, it finally told everyone that the thing it was looking for was a wooden ruler, and asked everyone to find it this month. If they can't find it again, it will die.  If he is alive, he will be buried with the people in the town.

    The shopkeeper spoke carefully, and it was already the third watch after he finished speaking.

    Mo Wen frowned slightly after listening to the shopkeeper's words. This object is not subject to ordinary talismans and can hurt people but not kill them. This shows that it is not an ordinary evil spirit, but a dragon and sea official.

    "It's getting late, good people, please go and rest early." Mo Wen stood up and spoke.

    The shopkeeper agreed and went to close the door and close the vertical board. Mo Wen turned around and walked to the upper room.

    "Master, there are two days until the full moon night." Lao Wu followed.

    "You called me daddy too early." Mo Wen shook his head and said.

    ¡°You called me your in-laws first, and then I called you daddy.¡± Lao Wu defended in a low voice.

    Mo Wen originally thought it was just a simple task, but he never thought that there was such a complicated inner story. The big red fish was most likely a subordinate of the Nanhai Dragon Clan, and the green horseshoe crab was a subordinate of the East China Sea Dragon Clan. The cause of the matter should be that the Nanhai Dragon Clan stole an important thing from the East China Sea Dragon Clan.  Something that the East China Sea Dragon Clan is eager to retrieve.

    No, to be precise, it¡¯s not the East China Sea Dragon Clan that wants to retrieve it, but the giant horseshoe crab that wants to retrieve it. This giant horseshoe crab has been acting alone, which shows that what it does is most likely not known by the East China Sea Dragon Clan.  The reason why it acted privately was probably because the theft had not yet been revealed. The East China Sea Dragon Clan did not know that important things had been stolen. It wanted to find the lost things before the Dragon Clan knew about it and make up for its own mistakes.

    This possibility is extremely high, because horseshoe crabs have a longer lifespan than turtles and are most suitable for important and time-consuming jobs such as warehouse guards.

    "Master, is it difficult to handle?" Lao Wu walked a few steps quickly and opened the door for Mo Wen.

    "If you hurt the giant horseshoe crab, you will not only offend the East China Sea Dragon Clan more, but you may also be blamed again." Mo Wen shook his head and said, if he stopped the giant horseshoe crab from looking for the lost items, he would be suspected of stealing from his accomplices. In addition, he had let Nanhai Ao go before.  Blanch it, the suspicion becomes even greater.

    "If we can find that wooden ruler, we can return it and we'll be fine." Lao Wu suggested.

    "Why do we know nothing about the wooden ruler? How can we find it? To say the least, even if we find the wooden ruler, we can't return it." Mo Wen shook his head while lying on the bed.

    "Why can't you pay it back?" Lao Wu asked.

    "This thing is most likely stolen by the Dragon Clan of the South China Sea. If we return it to the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea, wouldn't we offend Nanhai?" Mo Wen raised his hand to his forehead.

    "I'm going to return the hairpin to Zhao Yingying." Lao Wu realized the seriousness of the problem and turned around and walked out.

    "Marriage is not a child's play, how can it be a man's fault to go back on his word?" Don't criticize.

    "Master, if not, let's go to the East China Sea to return the beads first, and then come back and wait for the monster. When the monster comes, we will kill it, and then take the three of them back to the Taoist temple." Lao Wu offered another plan.  .

    "This is a bad idea, and it will lead to endless troubles." Mo Wen shook his head and said.

    Lao Wu's plans were rejected by Mo Wen, and he was completely helpless. Mo Wen lay on the bed and filtered the ruler in his mind. Since ancient times, there have been many magical artifacts and ancient treasures left by immortals, but the wooden ruler was used as a magic weapon.  But never heard of it.  The Dragon Clan of the South China Sea and the Dragon Clan of the East China Sea are at war at this time. The Dragon Clan of the South China Sea sent people to steal the wooden ruler, which must have deep meaning. In other words, this wooden ruler may have an impact on the current war. Whoever gets this wooden ruler will  It is possible to gain the upper hand.

    The East China Sea is made of wood and belongs to the dragon tribe, and the South China Sea is made of fire and belongs to the dragon tribe. Wood makes fire. This wooden ruler should be useful to both the East China Sea dragon tribe and the South China Sea dragon tribe.??.

    There was doubt in his mind, so he had no intention of sleeping. After thinking hard for half an hour, Mo Wen suddenly realized that he had been thinking in the wrong direction for the previous half hour. It was also possible that the shop owner had misreported it. What the giant horseshoe crab said was most likely not a wooden ruler.  , but ruler wood.

    The ruler wood is a sacred object of the Dragon Clan and is owned by the Dragon King of the Four Seas. The ruler wood is to the dragon tribe what the jade seal is to the emperor. Whoever gets the ruler wood will be the lord of the four seas.  In addition, the ruler wood also has a huge use, that is, you can use the ruler wood to fly to the heaven and face the Jade Emperor directly. If you lose the ruler wood, you will not be able to go to heaven.  Therefore, there has been a saying since ancient times that "a dragon cannot ascend to heaven without a foot or a tree."

    Thinking of this, Mo Wen stood up and paced back to bed. Due to the lack of clues, it was difficult to deduce the truth. Was it to prevent the Dragon King of the East China Sea from going to heaven to meet the Jade Emperor, or was it the Dragon King of the South China Sea who stole the ruler wood from the East China Sea?  He wants to go to heaven to do something, or maybe the ruler wood itself has supernatural powers. There are several possibilities.  The current situation is that the red fish has not returned for a long time, and the South China Sea Dragon Clan does not know whether the subordinates they sent out have succeeded.  As for the East China Sea Dragon Clan, due to the giant horseshoe crab's concealment, the upper echelons of the Dragon Clan did not know that Chimu had been lost, so neither party conducted a large-scale search for Chimu. "Master, look at this, this has caused trouble for you again."  When Lao Wu saw Mo Wen pacing back and forth, he felt even more uneasy.

    "There are no coincidences in the world. The so-called coincidences are all God's will. I don't blame you for this. Let's go and follow me out." Mo Wen turned and walked towards the door. Thinking that the door was closed, he turned around and walked back. By this time, Lao Wu was already there.  Opened the window.

    "There is no need to transform, we are not going far away." Mo Wenchong said to Lao Wu who was about to pull off his robe, and then jumped down.

    Lao Wu then came out and walked westward behind Mo Wen, "Master, where are we going?"

    ¡°Go to where the strange fish landed before.¡± Mo Wen said casually.

    Lao Wu didn¡¯t ask any more questions, and followed Mo Wen towards the west of the town. It was not the middle of the day, and there was no moonlight at the fourth watch, so the two of them walked westward in silence on the street.

    Mo Wen didn¡¯t know where the strange fish had landed before, but the town was not big. After several detours, he came to an abandoned house. The house was completely abandoned at this time, with earth, rocks and wood scattered everywhere.

    "Master, it's been several months, what can you tell?" Lao Wu said from the side.

    "The rafters were broken, and the main beams were also broken. This shows that the foot of wood is most likely made of wood, and it is not big." Mo Wen said.  The giant horseshoe crab is the guardian of the ruler wood, and its search marks can roughly tell the material and size of the ruler wood.

    "Master, is it a wooden ruler or a ruler? What is it?" Lao Wu was confused.

    "It's very important. Let's go to the beach." Mo Wen turned around and headed east.

    "There is nothing left at the beach." Lao Wu followed.

    "There will always be fish scales." Mo Wen said casually. His previous judgment was based on the premise that the strange fish belongs to the Dragon Clan of the South China Sea. However, red monsters are not only found in the South China Sea. You need to see the scales to confirm that the strange fish is a fire creature.  Genus or wood.
