Chapter 15: Killing the God

"It was this kid who caused me to leave the palace with a serious illness, and I almost lost my life, and I had to rely on my own struggle to fight for a foundation!" This Taoist priest is Zhao Ta just arrived in this realm, and after waking up from a dream, he saw one of the two Taoist priests, the old Liu Mingkang couldn't withstand the push of the years and hiccuped a long time ago, that young Taoist priest was the Dragon and Tiger Mountain Heavenly Master Zhang Jixian in front of him, I didn't expect that after such a year, he was still in holy favor.

Zhao Ta listened to Zhang Tianshi's work report for a while, and learned about the general course of the incident, last month, there was a poisonous fog dozens of miles wide in the salt pond of Jiezhou, Shanxi, people and animals could not approach, salt mining could not be successful, and salt taxes could not come up.

At this time, the most popular real person in Beijing is the "Chong Xuan Miao Tong Xuan Zhenren" Wang Zixi, and this task falls on him. But this kid didn't dare to take it, he knew his own ability, and he didn't want to take any responsibility, and said that this work was under the jurisdiction of the heavenly master with exquisite spells and vast magical powers, and the minister did not dare to overstep his authority, and recommended this Dragon and Tiger Mountain Heavenly Master Zhang Jixian, thinking that he would have the merit of recommendation, and if he failed, he only hoped that he would not be good enough, and he would be his own stepping stone. "Heavenly Master, what kind of demon is Xie Zhou?" Zhao Ji's curiosity was no worse than Zhao Ji's, and he leaned over and asked. "On the sacred, this demon is the ancient period of Chiyou was killed by Xuanyuan, and the descendants set up an ancestral hall to pay tribute. Now that the temple is destroyed, it will come out and turn into a Jiao, wanting to ask for the ancestral ceremony. Zhang Tianshi replied unhurriedly. Oh, I heard that Chi You is an ancient fierce god, who dares to compete for the emperor for the world, and his mana is boundless, how did the Heavenly Master descend this demon! Zhao Ji nodded and said, but how could his words satisfy his curiosity. The official family, Li Yan descended the demon with the Heavenly Master, you can let him elaborate! Yang Jian had already figured out the emperor's thoughts, and said with a look at one of the chamberlains beside him. Li Yan, come on! Sure enough, as Yang Jian expected, Zhao Ji immediately agreed, "Yes!" Li Yan bowed and walked closer, "After the little one and the Heavenly Master arrived in Xie Zhou day and night, the salt pond overflowed, glowing with red pulp, and the radius of twenty or thirty miles was shrouded in black fog, as long as people and animals approached, they would be killed immediately......"

Zhao Ta looked up and down at the waiter in front of him, this person is in his forties, medium stature, white skin, eagle hooked nose, but a pair of eyes are very attentive, revealing a kind of longing, to put it mildly, it is greedy, "This can't be the famous Li Peel in history" The fields that cannot be farmed, cattle cannot be cultivated, and they are exhausted and starved to death, or they are hanged in the yoke, right? Hearing his name, Zhao Ta thought of a person, Yang Jian presided over the Xicheng Institute, specially sent people to the countryside, to various states and counties to gather the people, verify the land deeds, he took the opportunity to seize the farmland, wantonly made money, he died also a name Li Yan took over Yang Jian's circle of money business, but his way of operation was much more advanced than the master's, so that even the Xicheng Institute lost its meaning.

Li Yan didn't have to check the title deed at all, what did he bother doing, he sent someone to stand directly on the land that was optimistic, and then loudly announced that this was an ownerless wasteland! It's as simple as that, whoever disagrees will die. The most ruthless time he did it, he sent people to gather all the land deeds in Lushan County, and in front of the owner of the deed, all the land in the county was burned, and the land in the county became "public land".

All of them have become public land, and public land is not taxed, so what about the original tax? This is a question that involves the pockets of His Majesty the Emperor. Li Yan thought about it, this way, Lushan County is already mine, and I can't embarrass them anymore. The original taxes were distributed to neighboring states and counties. Under this kind of transformation, it not only ensures that the emperor's waist does not shrink, but also ensures that his own waist becomes full, what a perfect and harmonious method!

"After the Celestial Master found out the situation, he immediately drew a talisman on the iron slip, and then threw the talisman into the place where the bank of the salt pond collapsed. After a while, the thunder and lightning roared, the day was like obscurity, the two gods would come, the blood light flashed, the sky reopened, and the evil Jiao had been killed in the water, more than ten zhang long, and then the Heavenly Master cast a spell again, releasing the heavenly fire to turn the evil Jiao into ashes! Li Yan was still talking about the process of removing Jiao with a demonstration, what he said was painting sound and color, which attracted the people in the hall, and the emperor even leaned his neck, staring at the corners of his mouth with a ha, and he had long been fascinated.

"What thunder and lightning, most likely is that this Taoist priest threw an explosive package to blow up the river embankment and plug the gap, this method is a commonly used method of plugging leaks in later generations, as for explosives, at that time there has been a firearm such as earth-shaking thunder, it is not difficult to get, but the amount required to blow up the river embankment must be a lot!" Zhao Ta pondered while listening, "The poisonous fog is not good because the temperature drops, and there is no wind on a cloudy day, the water flows into the salt pan and has a chemical reaction, and the rising smoke is difficult to dissipate. "Heavenly Master, which god general you sent to kill the evil Jiao, can you let Lian see him!" Zhao Ji wiped his mouth and asked. "The one summoned by the minister is the martial god Guan Yu, and Taishan Shi dares to be, if the emperor wants to see it, Xiaodao can be summoned immediately!" Zhang Jixian said with a smile, looking at his relaxed appearance, it seems that Guan Gong is like his dog, on call. ,

"Damn, it can't be true, right? Guan Yu's hometown is from Jiezhou, and it is possible for him to go back to benefit his hometown and repay his parents and fellow villagers! ”。 Not to mention other people, Zhao Ta was stunned, did he really underestimate the ancients, and there was really a way to exorcise gods and serve ghosts in the past? "Okay, Lianyi has always revered Guan Yu's loyalty, and I also ask the Heavenly Master to do it, let Lian see it!" Zhao Ji immediately became excited, ordered to set up an incense table, light a red candle, and prepare to welcome the gods.

Zhao Ta carefully watched Zhang Jixian's every move, only to see that he first lit three incense sticks, bowed a few times, and then took a few pieces of rune paper from the hands of his subordinate Dao Tong and wore them on the peach wood sword, while dancing the sword while chanting words in his mouth, Zhao Ta saw that the steps under his feet were actually the "Yu steps" he had learned, and it was difficult for Chinese martial arts to be related to this.

"Sickness!". Zhang Jixian suddenly stopped, his fingers punched the talisman paper a little, "Whew, down, there was a fire on the paper, he kept dancing the sword, and the hall quickly became smoky, and people were in it as if they were in the clouds, "Guan Yu, Shi dare to reveal his true body!" Zhang Jixian shouted.

Everyone was watching him cast a spell intently, and suddenly a red light flashed, and there were two more people in the hall, one was eight feet tall, with phoenix eyes and long hair, a face like a heavy jujube, and holding a green dragon glaive knife, which was the martial god Guan Yu. Another helmet and crown armor, a military general's outfit, gold armor, holding a long sword, waist chair and long bow, standing tall, majestic, not easy to mess with! "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!". The Taoist priests in the hall shouted the Dharma in unison, knelt down and bowed, and then looked at Zhao Ji who was also stunned and surprised.

Zhao Ta frowned, sniffled, and the smell of sulfur he was familiar with in the hall was mixed with the smell of camphor, "Damn, this Taoist priest can be a scientist, camphor, sulfur, and adding a little phosphorus powder to it can produce smoke, he will bluff people!" He immediately saw the flaw in it, and concluded that these two immortals were dressed as people, and they had long been hidden somewhere in the hall, and when the order to appear appeared, they immediately appeared from the hiding place through the smoke, and this farce of attracting gods was a double reed play performed by Zhang Jixian and Li Yan!

"Heavenly Master, Lian has seen the true bodies of the two gods, send them back!" Zhao Ji arched his hand at the two immortals and said, he didn't expect that "Guan Yu, don't do it, take a step forward, the horizontal knife is in front of his chest, the two eyes that have been squinting are bigger than eggs, and his mouth makes a "ho ho, the sound, a terrifying appearance, which startled Zhao Ji." The people all say, "Guan Gong doesn't open his eyes, he will kill people when he opens his eyes!" , Zhao Ta rushed to his father's body and shouted: "You wait for the little fairy, you dare to be unreasonable to the Son of Heaven, you are impatient!" ”。“ Saint, the two immortals want to ask the emperor for a reward, and there is no malice! ”。 Zhang Ji saw that he was stupid and bold, and hurriedly stepped forward to explain. "You shocked your father and the emperor is already a capital crime, and you still want a reward!" Zhao Ta was angry and scolded, dancing Wang Baquan to fight the two immortals.

"Erlang stops........." Zhao Ji finished speaking, and saw "Guan Gong, shook twice, and lay straight on his back to the ground, which can only be blamed for his too confidence, I don't believe that anyone dares to be in the "fairy", the head of the earth, was hit in the chin by Zhao Ta's hook, and those who have fought know that there is a concentration of vagus nerves, and as long as three kilograms of strength can make people unconscious. "Mother's knife is also a Xibei goods!". Zhao Ta picked up the Qinglong Yanyue knife with enough strength and slashed at Shi Dangdang, but he flashed himself too hard, not to mention eighty-one catties of this knife, not even eight catties!

"This king has beheaded you!". Zhao Ta swung his knife again to stop the waist and sweep, that "Shi Dangdang, it is indeed extraordinary, seeing the move, he sat on the ground with a butt, the big knife swept over his head, knocked the helmet to the ground, and split it into two petals, and then look" Shi Dangdang, his black face turned into a yellow face, "Mom! ”。 screamed, and fled to the outside of the hall with a rolling belt, but Zhao Ta made another miraculous feat, slapped him to the ground with a knife back, and his legs twitched unconscious!

"Hmph, dare to be rude to my father, no matter what gods and demons he is, this king will not show mercy!" Zhao Ta put the knife on the ground, pointed at a group of stunned Taoist priests with a black face and shouted, the majestic appearance is even Guan Gong just now, that appearance can definitely overshadow Schwarzenegger and bring back a little golden man. "Zhang Tianshi, do you have something to say!" No matter how stupid Zhao Ji was, he knew that he had been blinded, so he took the case and snorted coldly at Zhang Jixian's nose. "The saint is angry, listen to the small Taoist ......" Zhang Jixian knelt on the ground with his legs weak, and the cold sweat instantly soaked his robe. Come on, bind up these demons who have deceived the king! ”。 Yang Jian, who was behind the emperor, rushed out at this time and shouted in a sharp voice. (To be continued.)
