Chu Qiguang on the side didn't feel Qiao Zhi's strangeness, and just asked, "Master Qiao, you are hiding so close, can't this Fayuan Daoist also notice you?"

Qiao Zhi said proudly: "Hey, don't you know that the cat clan is best at lurking and transferring the battlefield? Unless this Taoist priest uses a talisman or an elixir, he won't be able to discover me with his martial arts realm alone." ”

Chu Qiguang knew that the three great skills that the Heavenly Master Sect was best at were talismans, swordsmanship, and elixir.

Among them, talismans and pills belong to the path of cultivation, and swordsmanship belongs to the path of martial arts. They are "Zhengyi Law Urn", "Zhengyi Sword Sutra" and "Zhengyi Dan Sutra". They and the book of the Sumeru Mountain King Sutra that Ding Daoxiao took away are both one of the 25 Fa-rectifications.

Most of the Taoist priests in ordinary Taoist temples practice swordsmanship, but in a Taoist temple, only the prison fasting has the talisman granted in the Heavenly Master Sect, which is the real supernatural power, which is made by the monks who have entered the Tao in the Heavenly Master Sect, and it is also the biggest reliance of every Taoist temple taught by the Heavenly Master to subdue demons and eliminate demons.

As for a Taoist priest like Fa Yuan, he can only rely on swordsmanship, experience, and elixir to subdue demons.

Qiao Zhi added: "A Taoist priest like Fa Yuan, if he doesn't take medicine or have a talisman, then he is no different from a martial artist of the same level. ”

Chu Qiguang asked Qiao Zhi about the talisman and pill of the Heavenly Master Sect again, and wondered if he could get some pills from Fa Yuan in the future that he couldn't usually buy, and even used this as an excuse to further contact the higher levels of the Taoist temple.

......

Chu Qiguang then exchanged a few words of greeting with the two, and by the way, Daoist Fayuan also told Gu Zhutou about the judgment of the fox demon.

With the spice of silver, the atmosphere seems to be much more harmonious all at once.

Chu Qiguang hit the railway while it was hot: "I heard that the Hao family also sent a reward for the bloody corpse case?"

When Gu Zhutou heard this, he immediately said: "There is a reward of 1,000 taels, and when the silver arrives at the county office, we will discuss the reward for meritorious deeds and distribute the silver."

Fa Yuan Dao Chief, you have high skills, and this time you can find out the fox demon, it is even more Daozun's blessing, these 1000 taels should be able to get 400 taels.

Although I don't have any skills, but those brothers under my command have not worked hard these days and have merit, so I have the cheekiness to take 300 taels of silver.

The county lord is in charge of the overall situation these days, strategizing, and the filial piety of 200 taels of silver is always wanted......"

In the end, Gu Zhutou looked at Chu Qiguang, frowned and said, "Young Master Chu, you also have a little credit, so take 100 taels of silver when the time comes." ”

Between the words of Gu Wei, the head catcher, the reward was distributed, the county honor, the Taoist temple, and the errand were all the same, but they only left a hundred taels for Chu Qiguang, which can be called leftovers, this is still for Chu Qiguang's sake of stuffing him with 10 taels of silver, otherwise Gu Wei can be pressed even harder.

Even in Gu Wei's opinion, Chu Qiguang still earned 100 taels after stuffing a little silver.

Chu Qiguang frowned and opened his mouth to refute, but seeing that the Fa Yuan Taoist priest accepted it with a smile, he knew that this opening would offend both the Taoist Temple and the Yamen.

What's more, how to divide the reward of the Hao family, and how to determine the credit for catching demons, after all, it is the county government and the Taoist temple that have the final say.

After thinking about it, Chu Qiguang could only agree for the time being.

He smiled gratefully and said to Gu Zhutou and Fa Yuan Daoist, "Thank you two for taking care of you." "In his heart, he secretly cursed: 'This yamen and Taoist temple...... It's too dark, too. ’

......

Next, Gu Weibian said that he would summon the messengers to search for the fox demon, and let Chu Qiguang and Fayuan Daoist wait in this side hall.

But this wait was more than half an hour, and the messenger of the yamen did not appear for a long time, so Chu Qiguang had to go to the yasan room to ask.

Gu Wei, the head catcher, said unhappily when he heard this: "Young Master Chu, there are more than 100,000 people inside and outside Qingyang County, and the manpower in the yamen is already stretched thin on weekdays, and it is not a matter of time or three to summon them, you just wait patiently." ”

Chu Qiguang asked, "Then how long will it take?" He has to seize the time to cultivate and study every day, but he doesn't have time to spend it in this county office.

Gu Zhutou said impatiently: "Young Master Chu, the county lord asked you to assist us in handling the case, but I didn't let you come to command blindly, the yamen is full of experienced old rivers and lakes, you can wait with peace of mind." ”

Seeing that Chu Qiguang wanted to say something more, Gu Zhutou turned his face directly, and slapped his palm on the tea table in front of him, and the power that reached the limit of the human body suddenly exploded, leaving a deep palm print directly on the table.

Chu Qiguang's eyes suddenly tightened, the head catcher in Qingyang County in front of him probably also has the strength of the second realm of martial arts, although he can't pass the martial arts exam, but it is more than enough to be a head catcher.

Gu Zhutou said impatiently: "This is the county government of Qingyang County, it is not the turn of outsiders to point fingers, if it affects the Yamen to handle the case, can you afford it?"

After Chu Qiguang left, Gu Wei, the head catcher, sneered slightly, then turned his head to look at Kuaishou on the side and said, "Have you asked clearly?"

Kuaishou on the side said: "Gu Ye, you can put a hundred hearts, this Chu Qiguang is just an ordinary farmer in Wangjiazhuang, and he has no background at all." I didn't know how to please the young master of the Wang family, so I brought him to the county seat to study. ”

Gu Wei sneered: "It's really whimsical that a farmer still wants to come and share the silver. When the fox demon is caught, he will be rewarded with a maximum of fifty taels or ten taels. ”

After finding out that Chu Qiguang had no background, Gu Wei planned to directly tear up the previous agreement to divide the silver, especially in his opinion, Chu Qiguang was no longer needed for the next search and arrest operation, so why bother to divide the other party's 100 taels of silver.

So his next move was to kick Chu Qiguang aside and take all the credit for capturing the fox demon on himself. In this way, he and his subordinates took 400 taels of silver, and then divided the rest of the silver to the Taoist temple 400 taels and the county magistrate 200 taels.

Gu Wei laughed: "It's just a seriously injured fox demon, we can catch it ourselves." ”

"Everyone's gathered, right?"

"Gather the hunters in the county, find the best hunting dogs, and hunt for foxes in the city, and don't let any of them go. ”

"Check which yards in the county no one lives in, and look for them one by one. ”

"That fox demon is injured, he must want to suck people's essence to recover, check if there are any lost people in the county recently, don't let anyone go......"

Gu Wei is worthy of being a head hunter for many years, and after knowing that the murderer is a fox demon, he arranged orders one by one in an orderly manner, and nearly 100 of his servants were all launched.

"When the matter is over, I will reward this kid with 5 taels of silver, which can be regarded as worthy of him. ”

Thinking of earning nearly 100 taels of silver, Gu Wei couldn't help but lick his lips again, and thought in his heart: "Just enough to buy Zhao'er from the Red Sleeve Courtyard and be my fourth concubine." ’

......

Coming out of the soap room, Chu Qiguang squinted his eyes, and after thinking about it slightly, he noticed the abnormality in it, and asked Qiao Zhi to investigate.

When Qiao Zhi came back, he scolded: "What kind of person! I don't do anything after receiving the money! I'm so angry! I'm so angry! Ten taels of silver are just fed to the dogs!"

The more Qiao Zhi thought about it, the more angry he became: "That dog catcher has already sent someone to search for the fox demon, and he doesn't plan to share your reward at all, so he plans to send you away with five taels of silver." ”

Chu Qiguang's eyes flashed with coldness, and he smiled slightly: "It just so happens that I don't want to give it to him." ”

"But if you steal the credit, with this head-catching character, I'm afraid you won't give up. If you want to do it, you will do it......"

Chu Qiguang knows too well how many heroes and heroes in history have been badly done by such villains. Chu Qiguang has always been desperate for this kind of villain, and he has never underestimated it and let it go.

'This kind of scum of the court, I, the murderer, can't stand it, and the way for heaven is today. ’
