"Senior Brother Nian'en, what are you doing?" Mo Changfeng asked puzzled.

"Senior Brother Mo, I have something to look for you. ”

Qingjun was also curious, "Nian'en, what is the matter, looking for Changfeng in such a hurry?"

"Uncle Qing, the disciple doesn't want to succeed to the throne, Jiuzhi has always been the capable, Jiuzhi can be pulled out of the quagmire this time, it all depends on Senior Brother Mo, how can the disciple compete with Senior Brother Mo for the position in charge. ”

"So, you don't want to succeed?"

Nian En was stunned, he didn't expect Mo Changfeng to ask such a thing, could it be that he really wanted to succeed to the throne, and because of his Nian En's identity, he deliberately said to back down?

Nian En opened his mouth and responded: "Even if I want to succeed to the throne, I should be convincing, if not, please ask Senior Brother Mo to take over Jiuzhi." ”

Mo Changfeng looked at Nian'en's eyes, and always felt a little strange, Nian'en's eyes usually looked very clear and gentle, always like a child, today is a little more resolute, this is a good thing, but it came a little suddenly.

Mo Changfeng was silent, Qingjun listened to Nian'en's words on the side, frowned, and dissuaded depressedly: "No need, Nian'en, Changfeng has already made up his mind, so there is no need to be reluctant, as for your inheritance of the position of the Nine Heavens Monarch, there is a will of the Nine Heavens Monarch, and no one will disagree." ”

Nian En and Mo Changfeng were both shocked when they heard this, and Mo Changfeng asked, "Jiutianjun left a will?" Uncle Shi, why didn't you take it out before?"

"The old man returned to Jiuzhi, and he went to the dormitory of Jiutianjun before his death, Jiutianjun left a will, with his golden seal on it, and it was written in the will to let Nianen succeed to the throne, before the uncle had selfish intentions. ”

To make it clear, it is Qingjun who wants the sage to succeed to the throne, that is, Mo Changfeng, but Mo Changfeng insists on leaving, and Jiutianjun's will is also clearly written, Nian En succeeds to the throne, I believe that no one is dissatisfied.

However, even so, when the will came, all the disciples of Jiuzhi had their own thoughts, some people felt that Jiutianjun was a disciple who favored him, and some people thought that Jiutianjun did not know that there would be a Mo Changfeng.

Some people also think that Mo Changfeng has left Jiuzhi, even if he is kind to Jiuzhi this time, it is indeed unreasonable to inherit the position of Jiuzhi in charge, and Nian's ability is not recognized, why is it not Qingjun or Nan Dunan to succeed to the throne, these two are also the elders of Jiuzhi, and they are not more suitable to succeed to the throne?

However, there are different opinions, and they can't change the fact that Nian En succeeded to the throne, but it is just for people with a heart to listen to it and make more fuss.

At that time.

Jingyuan, who was far away in Qingxi Town, was looking at the bronze mirror and smiling like a flower, and Bai Shu, who was bored lying on the table, only felt a creep in her heart when she saw it, and said in shock: "Third sister, what are you smiling at the mirror, but it makes me look at the back for a while." ”

Jingyuan smiled lightly, carefully cared for the nails that had grown a little, and couldn't help but say, "Unexpectedly, this kid is quite jealous!"

"What do you mean?" Bai Shu raised her head and asked with interest, Jing Yuan replied with a deep meaning: "It seems that my poison is going to play another role, Nian En, this kid, really lived up to my winged silver cicada." ”

"Linyi Silver Cicada?What is that?" Shui Ling pushed the door in, he was always waiting for news of the spirit snake recently, and he was keeping to himself in the inn, which would hear a novelty, and Shui Ling would inevitably be more interested.

Jing Yuan did not shy away from answering: "The winged silver cicada is a highly poisonous thing, weaker than the poison of the poisonous kite, its characteristic is that life and death go hand in hand, alive by the silver cicada, after death the corpse will be eaten by the silver cicada, even the soul, will be traumatized." ”

Shui Ling has heard that there is a treasure in Wan Kill, the medicinal effect is excellent, it is a yin and yang bone, there is a poison, and the person who enters the throat will die, which is the poison of the poisonous kite, but now listening to Jingyuan's introduction to the silver cicada, this thing is far more poisonous than the poisonous kite.

"It's a lot more vicious than a poisonous kite. ”

The poisonous kite was actually suspected, Jing Yuan smiled meaningfully, and asked Shui Ling: "Do you want to see the poison of the poisonous kite?"

"You ......"

Jing Yuan didn't want to kill her? Jing Yuan saw Shui Ling's face turn pale, and she immediately laughed loudly, not daring to tease her anymore, "Don't worry, we are partners, I won't kill you." ”

Shui Ling was suspicious, and heard the voice of the guy outside, it turned out that Jingyuan had gotten up in the morning recently, and she liked to drink the soup here, so she asked the cook to prepare it for her early in the morning.

"Come in. Jingyuan raised her voice in response, stood up from the dresser, and the man pushed the door into the house, and when he saw the three beauties in the house, his eyes suddenly wandered, and then, he looked at Jingyuan who was beautiful and fragrant.

"Girl, you want soup. ”

Jingyuan raised her hand to pick up a sip, her smile was gentle and lovely, the guy was naturally demented, and wanted to wait for the beauty to say something good, but after Jingyuan tasted it, she smiled and shook her head.

"It's a little cold, please help me take it back and warm it up. ”

The guy was confused for a while, and put his hand on the side of the bowl to try the temperature, which was clearly quite hot.

"Girl, why is this cold? ”

The corners of Jingyuan's lips hooked, with three points of charm, and she said softly: "If you don't believe it, you can taste it." ”

It's a good thing to be able to eat a bowl of soup with a beauty, and the guy doesn't care if the beauty is abnormal, so he just tastes it, "Huh, it's not cold!"

As soon as a warmth entered his throat, he spit out four words, and his throat instantly felt as if he had been burned by a piece of red-hot iron, and the man opened his mouth, but lost his voice.

Jing Yuan smiled and watched a burst of red smoke overflow from the man's seven orifices, the man's body gradually deformed, and in the blink of an eye, it was completely corroded, leaving not even a trace of breath.

Bai Shu was stunned, and the water spirit was afraid, "This ......"

"How can the poison of Wan Kill be wasted?" Jing Yuan turned away disapprerovingly and sat down at the table.

Shui Ling held down the beating heart vein, and it took a moment to come back to his senses, "Wanshu has such a poison, why don't you dominate the Six Realms?"

"It's not that I don't want to dominate, it's just that the time hasn't come yet, Shui Ling, I'm not afraid of what you know, Canghai wants to deal with Wan Kill, or a little whimsical, the bloodthirsty who is known as the supreme of the demon world is in front of my master, and he can only only raise his head without being able to raise his head, Canghai is a demon, it is best to kill the well water with me and not violate the river water, and they will be at peace. ”

Shui Ling was stunned, no longer spoke, it was clear that Shui Ling also knew some charms, but compared with Jing Yuan, what she would do seemed to be much worse, Shui Ling knew in her heart that if she were her, she would definitely not be able to control Qiu Xiangwan, and at this moment, she only felt that the strength of Wan Kill had become a little unfathomable.

scared Shui Ling, Jingyuan was thinking about drinking some morning tea quietly, but Shi Zhu broke in, "Jingyuan protects the Dharma, something happened there in Qiu Xiangwan." ”

Jingyuan's eyelids jumped when she heard this, and it seemed that nothing was good, so she put down the cup and followed Shi Zhu.

It's just that when Shi Zhu led Jingyuan and Bai Shu to the room where Qiu Xiangwan was imprisoned, he saw a pool of blood on the couch and a wide open window, and Qiu Xiangwan had disappeared.

Jing Yuan was surprised, looked at Shi Zhu, and asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Shi Zhu replied honestly: "I saw him holding his head just now, and his expression was very painful, so my subordinates went to find you, the protector." ”

Jing Yuan thought about it, which could only mean that Qiu Xiangwan had regained a little consciousness and wanted to get rid of her control.

Shui Ling saw that Jing Yuan was frowning, and was thinking about whether it was a tricky matter, so Jing Yuan asked, "When will your red letter be used?"

"It's already possible. ”

"Summoning it out of that monk's body, Baishu, you assist her, and I'll go find Qiu Xiangwan." ”

Bai Shu grabbed Jingyuan's arm with a worried face, "Third sister?"

"The way he is now, he can't kill me. Jingyuan was confident, Bai Shu had no choice but to let go, but Jingyuan wanted to find Qiu Xiangwan, but it was not so easy.

Twenty-three.

Jiuzhi is full of guests, it is the day when Nian En takes over Jiuzhi, Qing Jun read the will of Jiutian Jun, if so, Nian En has become the new head of Jiuzhi, the news spread, but there are two things that everyone is talking about.

1. Qingjun and Nan Dunan are still here, how can it be Nian En to take over?

Second, the new head of Jiuzhi was appointed to take over, but no one from Yingzhou came forward, and even a congratulatory letter was not delivered.

Back and forth plus the days of staying in Jiuzhi, seeing that it was about to be the third day, Ye Tao and Jiang Qi could only go back, so they looked for Ziyou, thinking of talking to Qingjun and Xinjun Nian'en.

But I saw Ziyou and Nan Dunan looking at the lake side by side on the long pavilion, at first glance, there was nothing different, and then looked, why didn't there even be a disciple around.

Jiang Qi also asked in surprise: "Senior brother, what do you say Uncle Shi and Nan seniors are talking about, why is there no one around?"

Ye Tao really didn't know what the two of them needed to communicate privately, so he didn't have time to guess, Zi You turned around and saw the two of them.

"Uncle Shi!"

Ye Tao and Jiang Qi leaned over with smiling faces, Zi You frowned slightly, and scolded lightly: "You two senior brothers are eavesdropping?"

Jiang Qi hurriedly shook his head and denied it, "Wronged, uncle, my senior brother and I have just arrived here, what are you talking about with Uncle Nan?"

Zi Youxun was like a child, preaching on his lips, but his eyes were gentle and tight, "Don't ask too much about adults." ”

Jiang Qi smiled "hehe", Ye Tao shook his head slightly, and was about to explain his intentions, Nan Dunan looked at Ye Tao and Jiang Qi, smiling amiably, and then looked at Ziyou, his eyebrows and eyes were smiling.

"Brother Ziyou, for us, they are still young, so there is no need to be harsh, but they are just discussing the matter of Nian En's succession, what can't be said. ”

Ye Tao didn't know why Nan Dunan and Ziyou discussed this matter, and what was worth discussing about this matter?

"Seniors have questions about this?"

"The old man just doesn't understand, why Jiutianjun left a will and let Nian'en succeed to the throne, obviously there is a long wind......"

When Jiang Qi heard this, he immediately said: "But Mo Changfeng didn't appear at that time, and Jiutianjun didn't know that he was still alive. ”

"Nine Heavenly Monarch knows. ”

Ye Tao and Jiang Qi were both stunned when they heard this, Jiutianjun knew that Mo Changfeng was still alive, and about Mo Changfeng's life and death, it seemed that the more rational it was, the more chaotic it became, and Ye Tao couldn't figure it out, no matter what, it was an internal matter of Jiuzhi.

"Uncle Shi, Senior Nan, the disciple and the junior brother came to find Uncle Shi this time, I want to tell you that the disciple and Jiang Qi need to go back to Wuzhi. ”

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Nan Dunan was stunned, but this was an internal matter of Wuzhi, and Ziyu didn't want Nan Dunan to know, so he asked casually: "But the senior brother in charge asked you to go back to practice?"

Ye Tao and Jiang Qi didn't expect Zi Youhui to think of such a reason for them, this would be a lie, and if they didn't nod, it would be bad for them to leave on the second day of congratulations, so they had to nod against their will.

Nan Dunan smiled happily when she heard this, "That's okay, Wuzhi conducts a review once a year, and I don't know how many Hongjue disciples there will be this time, which can be described as a lot of talents." ”

Zi Yu responded humbly, but he couldn't hide the smile on the corner of his mouth, "Complimented." ”

"By the way, it's time for Ye Xian's nephew to go to Zijue, right?" As soon as the words changed, Nan Dunan looked at Ye Tao, Ye Tao bowed his head slightly, "It's not here yet, thank you seniors for your concern." ”

Zi Yu said in a deep voice, "You must arrive this time." ”

Ye Tao was helpless, this was not an overnight thing, the closer Gong Jue got to Zi Jue, the more difficult it was to go to the next level, but he had indeed stayed in Hong Jue for a long time, and it was time to break through.

"The disciple will definitely do his best. ”

Ye Tao looked at Zi You's face, this response didn't seem to be satisfactory to him, maybe only by breaking through Zi Jue could a few elders feel comforted!

After saying goodbye to Jiuzhi, Ye Tao and Jiang Qi didn't dare to stop, and hurriedly rushed back to Wuzhi to wash the moon spirit again.

Lanhai Temple.

In the dead of night, a bright moon hangs in the air, the shadows of the trees in the Zen temple are swaying, and a few cicadas chirp occasionally in August.

In the meditation room, the monk who had fallen asleep, his nose moved slightly, and in his sleep, his fingers pinched his nose a few times, and he turned over and fell asleep again.

After a while, the monk's breathing became weaker and weaker, and in the dim room, his nostrils, the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were all overflowing with bright red blood.

Next.

The sky was slightly bright, and the monks in the temple had already begun to turn over, looking at the monks in the same meditation room, and an exclamation spread from the meditation courtyard.

The sun shines into the meditation room at the hour, the bell of the meditation monastery rings, and a group of monks can only wait outside, chanting sutras for the deceased.

When Abbot Yan Yuan and Yan Zhen came to the meditation room, it was too late, and the deceased was already stiff, but his face was full of horror.

Yan Zhen asked the trembling monk on the side, "Zihe, did you see anything unusual when you woke up this morning?"

The disciple who called Zihe shook his head and said reverently: "Back to Senior Uncle Ancestor, the disciple woke up this morning, and Senior Brother Ziming was already like this. ”

Yan Yuan raised his eyes and swept through the meditation room, only to feel that a turbid air was strong and abnormal, just entering the meditation room there was only one door, from the door to the couch, leaving no trace, Yan Yuan hurriedly said: "No vain, no cliff, hurry up and monitor the temple." ”

"Yes, Master!"

The two monks behind Yan Yuan exited the meditation room, and looked down at the ground: "If you want to enter the meditation room, there is only this door, the murderer committed the murder, and there should be some clues, we still check from the vicinity of the meditation room." ”

Wuya paused and asked, "What if it's a demon?"

"If it is a demon, every corner of the temple is blessed by the Buddha's light, if the demon wants to come in, it is estimated that a layer of skin will fall off when touched, besides, these movements should have been discovered a long time ago. ”

Listening to Wuyu's words, Wuya calmed down and thought for a moment, feeling that it was very reasonable, so he followed to check every corner of the temple, but he only touched it for about half an hour, and did not find anything unusual in the courtyard of the temple.

The two of them searched for a while to no avail, and they were already distressed, and there was no cliff: "There is nothing unusual about each Zen temple." ”
