Han Xuan saw that Zhang Zhao, Lu Fan, Gu Yong and others had come to intercede for Yu Ji, and couldn't help but sigh at the horror of this feudal superstitious thought, these people were his right-hand men, but now they were biased towards a Taoist priest who pretended to be a ghost.

Han Xuan didn't come out angrily, pointed at them and said, "You and the others are all scholars, why not be reasonable?" In the past, Zhang Jin, the assassin of Jiaozhou, listened to the cult, burned incense, often wrapped his head in a red handkerchief, claiming to be able to help the power of the army, but was later killed by the enemy. Such things are of little benefit, and the kings are still obsessed. I want to kill Yu Ji, and I am thinking about banning the cult and becoming confused. ”

Lu Fan saw that Han Xuan was moved by murderous intentions, so he wanted Chen Wu to persuade Han Xuan, but now only Chen Wu could persuade Han Xuan. Lu Fan glanced at Chen Wu, but saw that Chen Wu was unmoved, and Chen Wu, as a modern person, also knew the dangers of cults. Han Xuan wanted to kill Yu Ji, and he was in favor of it with both hands.

Lu Fan was helpless, so he had to say to Han Xuan: "I know that a Taoist can pray for wind and rain. Fang Jindanyang is dry, why not ask him to pray for rain to atone for his sins? ”

Han Xuan sneered, "Okay, I'll see what this demon is capable of." If Yu Ji begs for rain, I will not forgive, and you don't need to say anything. ”

Han Xuan ordered Zhou Tai to be taken to prison to take him to Ji, open the shackles on his body, and let him go to the altar to beg for rain. Yu Ji received the order, immediately bathed and changed clothes, took a rope to tie himself up, and exposed himself to the scorching sun on the altar.

The people of Wanling City hurriedly came to see Yu Ji begging for rain, and the streets and alleys were full of people. Han Xuan couldn't help but smack his tongue again and again when he saw the crowd of people under the altar, today he was breaking the feudal superstition in front of this group of ancients.

Han Xuanxin said that you don't do any Dharma things, you can't do anything, I see how you ask for rain. But I saw Yu Ji say to everyone: "I ask for three feet of rain to save all the people, but I will inevitably die." ”

Everyone knelt down and said, "If there is a miracle, the Marquis of Chu will definitely be respected." ”

Yu Ji shook his head, awe-inspiring and unafraid, and sighed: "The qi is so far, I'm afraid I can't escape." ”

After waiting for a while, Han Xuan personally went to the altar and ordered: "If there is no rain at noon, Yu Ji will be burned to death." ”

Han Xuan first asked people to pile up dry firewood on the side, and when it was almost noon, a gust of wind suddenly rose. Where the wind passed, everyone couldn't open their eyes, Chen Wu and Han Xuan held their hands to stabilize their figures, Chen Wu said, "Didn't this old Taoist read the weather forecast?" ”

"What nonsense, what's the weather forecast here! It must be raining, and it happened to let Yu Ji catch up. Han Xuan said.

After a while, the wind stopped, and the clouds in all directions in the sky gradually closed.

Han Xuan saw that it was not raining, so he said to everyone: "It's almost noon, there are clouds in the sky, and there is no rain, Yu Ji is a demon who pretends to be a ghost!" ”

Han Xuan ordered Zhou Tai to lead two warriors to carry the pyre on the pyre and raise the torches in all directions, but saw the flames tilting with the wind. Suddenly, I saw a black smoke rushing into the air, a lightning bolt streaked across the sky, and then there was rolling thunder and heavy rain.

In an instant, the market was flooded into a small river, and the dry ponds and dry wells were all filled with rainwater. Yu Ji lay on his back on the pyre and shouted to the sky, "Stop! ”

Han Xuan and Chen Wu still couldn't believe it, but they saw that the clouds gradually dispersed, the rain stopped, and a ray of sunlight shone down through the clouds. So the officials and the people helped Ji down the pyre, untied the ropes, and thanked Yu Ji again for asking for Ganlin for the long-drought Wanling City.

Han Xuan saw that the officials and the people were kneeling in the water one after another, completely ignoring the soaked clothes on his body, so he was furious and reprimanded everyone: "Sunny rain is the fixed number of heaven and earth, the demon Yu Ji just happened to meet by chance, why are you so confused!" ”

Han Xuan pulled out the sword at his waist and ordered the left and right guards to quickly cut Yu Ji, and the officials admonished him, Zhang Zhao dissuaded: "The lord can't do it, if you kill the gods today, you will be punished by heaven!" ”

Lu Fan pressed the sword in Han Xuan's hand, and Han Xuan said angrily: "Do you want to rebel with Yu Ji!" ”

Zhang Zhao, Lu Fan and other officials did not dare to persuade again, Han Xuan asked the executioner to behead him, and the executioner raised the guillotine and did not dare to cut down.

Han Xuan glanced at Chen Wu beside him and said, "Chen Wu, you go and kill him!" ”

Chen Wu went up and snatched the executioner's guillotine knife and scolded: "Waste, stand down." Let me. ”

Chen Wuyang raised the knife above his head, but saw that Yu Ji's face was fearless, and the moment the knife fell after the break, everyone was so frightened that they hurriedly closed their eyes. Han Xuan watched Chen Wu behead Ji with a knife and landed on the ground, and snorted coldly: "What kind of immortal demon Dao, isn't it also flesh and blood." ”

It's just that Han Xuan didn't see a green qi and went to the northeast. Han Xuan ordered people to put Ji's corpse in the bazaar to deter those superstitious cult people, so as to prove Yu Ji's evil words to confuse the public.

Outside Wanling City, Han Xuan saw Chen Wu off, Chen Wu was going to Dongye to go to sea from the Wanwan Strait this time to find Yizhou, Han Xuan specially asked Lu Dai and Zhou Tai to accompany him, and they could assist Chen Wu with one article and one martial arts.

Han Xuan patted Chen Wu's hand and said, "Pay more attention to safety on this trip, the vast sea is no better than the Yangtze River." Anyway, you just have to keep an eye out for sailing in the southeast direction, and now you shouldn't have a problem with a compass. ”

Chen Wu nodded, let go of Han Xuan's hand and rode on the horse and said, "I know, you also have to take care of your body, wait for me to come back!" ”

"Drive! Drive! ......" Chen Wu turned the horse's head, twitched the horsewhip and went straight south. Han Xuanmu sent Chen Wu away, brother, he couldn't bear to see Chen Wu sad and remorseful as he was tortured by illness and died.

The story of going to sea to find medicine was also spread by Han Xuan, he just wanted to get rid of Chen Wu, and at the same time urged Jiangdong to find the treasure island quickly, Han Xuan and Chen Wu knew the value of that island very well.

"When you arrive at the Ocean Academy, remember to greet Wei Wen and Zhuge Zhi on my behalf!" Han Xuan waved and shouted at Chen Wu's back, Chen Wu and his party disappeared on the horizon, and Han Xuan returned to the city in a lost place, after this farewell, maybe they would never see each other again.

In the middle of the night, Han Xuan was sleeping in the inner house, and suddenly saw a gust of cloudy wind suddenly rising, and the candle in front of the bed flickered and dimmed. As soon as Han Xuan turned over, he saw that the candle flame had turned a strange green.

Under the shadow of the lamp, Han Xuan rubbed his eyes and saw a dark shadow standing in front of the bed. Han Xuan opened his eyes wide to see, it turned out that the black shadow was Yu Ji, Han Xuan was shocked and angry, and shouted: "I will kill you today to appease the world!" Since you are a yin ghost, how dare you approach me! ”

Han Xuan hurriedly pulled out the sword at the head of the bed and threw it at him, but Yu Ji suddenly disappeared. The servant heard the noise and woke up Han Xuan's mother, Du Shi, who heard that Han Xuan had met Yu Ji's ghost, and turned to be depressed.

Han Xuan was hit by Xu Gongmenke's poisonous arrow last time, and now he felt that the curare poison had recurred, so Han Xuan dragged his sick body and forcibly came to see Du Shi, telling Du Shi not to worry about himself.

Du Shi said to Han Xuan: "The matter of ghosts and gods, don't believe it. If you succumb to kill Mr. Yu, will there be no retribution? I have made people shape the image of the first Tianzun in the jade view of the county city, you can go to pray in person, naturally safe. ”

Han Xuan didn't dare to disobey his mother's order, so he had to reluctantly take a sedan chair to Yuqingguan. The Taoist priest brought them in and asked Han Xuan to burn incense, and Han Xuan burned incense without thanking them. Suddenly, I saw that the smoke in the incense burner did not disperse, forming a canopy, and Yu Ji sat on it.

Han Xuan was furious and scolded: "Yu Ji, you belong to the dog skin plaster? Why is it haunting me? ”

Han Xuan walked away from the temple, and saw Yu Ji standing at the door of the Taoist temple, glaring at Han Xuan angrily. Han Xuan asked left and right: "Are you waiting to see the demons?" ”

The servants shook their heads and said, "I haven't seen it before." ”

Du Shi said to Han Xuan: "Xuan'er, this blue sky and white day, and in the Taoist temple, where are the demons and ghosts?" ”

Han Xuan's back broke out in a cold sweat, he obviously saw that Yu Ji was there, why couldn't others see it, could it be that he was hallucinating? When he got out of the Taoist temple, Han Xuan saw Yu Ji walking into the gate again.

Everyone turned a blind eye, and Han Xuan exclaimed, "This view is also a place where demons are hidden!" ”
